restarting gmond will (of course) flush all hostname records that it has. you might take a look at nscd (the name service cache daemon) and see if you are running it...

% ps -ef | grep nscd
% ls /etc/nscd.conf

if it's running, it will cache the names for a while before it updates.

Hi Simon:

Are the hostnames stored locally in /etc/hosts by any chance?

Just a thought.
