Hello,

the problem with FQDN is, that getting it often requires a working DNS -
if the DNS or network is down, monit start/reload is then slow as it
tries the FQDN lookup will timeout. If monit is responsible for starting
the network interface and/or DNS, it'll be problem on each start (monit
will pause on FQDN lookup before starting services, making the startup
time longer).

   I see the point, but wanted to avoid manual reconfiguration.

   So let's make it a feature request (albeit one with very low priority):

add a variable "$FQDN" which resolves to the DNS provided hostname - if one uses this one should know, what is expected from him.

   Thank you, and thanks for all the good work.

Marcus
