Package: argus-server
Version: 1:2.0.6.fixes.1-10
Severity: normal

The argus.conf file as deployed has an option called
ARGUS_MONITOR_DATA, typically set to `hostname`. This can be set with
a name of ARGUS_MONITOR_ID instead, and is set this way in the current
source distribution for argus.

The peculiar side effect of the current configuration is that argus
logs the occasional informational message with a bogus IP address,
"229.97.122.203" on a couple of systems I have here. I added a line to
argus.conf with ARGUS_MONITOR_ID instead, though hard-coded in my case
to contain the IP address. This now reports correctly in the argus.log
file.
