Hello, and thank you for your response.
The error is as follows:
@backup jim]# monit status
Skipping redundant host 'localhost'
This is my config for that item:
set httpd port 2812 and
allow localhost # allow localhost to connect to the server and
allow xx.xx.xx.xx
allow admin:password # require user 'admin' with password 'monit'
This did work in 5.16, and allow access from both localhost and the m/monit
host.
Jim

Hello Jim,
Monit 5.17 or later expands the $HOST variable into the system hostname only.
The FQDN is used only in sender address for alert delivery.
The warning about duplicate localhost warning - please can you post the full
error as reported by monit? If the warning is related to the "set httpd"
statement, it should show up only if you have a duplicate "allow" option with
the same host and the template is:
Skipping redundant host '<hostname>'
To remove the warning it should be sufficient to just remove the duplicate
allow option - only one will remain and the CLI access will still work.
Best regards,
Martin
