If you mean from the Client side:
I would assume /etc/defaults/hobbit-client is in order?
If so, there's a hack I use on occasion that will help keep everything "ok".
In the /home/xymon/client/runclient.sh file, there is a variable set early
on in the script:
MACHINEDOTS="`uname -n`"
If you absolutely have to, you can comment that guy out and replace it with:
MACHINEDOTS="fully.qualified.domain"
to get whatever your hostname should be.
If you are referring to server side *after* the message is received at the
server, then I am less knowledgeable in that part. Maybe one of our friends
here could help out?

Hi Xymonites...
I've been tracking an issue with an install I have where hostnames are
getting cut short, we have some boxes with longer than standard hostnames
(some close to 32chars long), I've tried setting CLIENT: and that does seem
to work but I really need a proper solution as we could have some hosts with
domains a lot longer than this and I don't want to put exceptions in for
everything.
Any ideas, I seem to remember this issue a few years back, possibly longer
than that but can't remember the specifics about the fix.
Cheers,
Mike
