Is there a way to make it look at the file only/first?
I'm not sure, I'll have to defer to someone else.

I appreciate the response! Is there a way to make it look at the file

We had this issue and it was caused by invalid settings in our DNS
server. Xymon seems to attempt a DNS resolution prior to using the
hard-coded IP address, which was tremendously confusing for us, but
identified a problem were were unaware of.

Subject: Email and website notifications wrong IPs
Emails for some of my systems on the new Xymon server are going out with
bad IPs in them.
The system is correct in hosts.cfg and it seems it is monitoring the
correct host, but when it alerts on it, Xymon puts the wrong IP in the
email and it also puts the wrong IP on the webpage. If I grep for that
incorrect IP, it doesn’t exist in $xymon/server/etc anywhere.
From notifications log I see this:
Tue Nov 4 15:21:34 2014 DTAMMI-DYN2.conn (XXX.XXX.25.228) EMAIL ADDRESS
But the email it sends out says this:
System unreachable for 4014 poll periods (1211916 seconds)
&red XXX.XXX.19.160 is unreachable
If I look at the Xymon webpage for it also has this address listed:
XXX.XXX.19.160 is unreachable
Any idea what might be causing this?
