[Xymon] Xymon 4.3.0 - Build RPMs

That's another step I left out, I hard coded my server ip into rpm/xymon.spec:

XYMONHOSTIP=myxymonserverIP

That way when I installed the rpm, all I had to do was start the xymon-client and I no more configuration was required on the client (/etc/default/xymon-client was preconfigured in the rpm)

If you want repos, or xymon to be included in the distributions you use, you should rather populate /etc/sysconfig/xymon-client (my RPMS use this as it is the more standard location on RH-based distros). So, there is not much benefit in doing it in your spec file.
