Bug: Perfmon requires Computer Name to remotely poll

See original GitHub issue

I’ve uninstalled tabmon and removed postgres, reinstalled using all defaults, as that was default issue resolution on previous access denied service start issues.

Now, I get the following:

Any assistance in getting tabmon installed and working is appreciated.

It looks like we have a bug here… both the IP and your longer DNS entry are being resolved and then overly shortened down to simply “edwtab2”, which Perfmon can’t connect to; we need to preserve the domain suffix information for cases like this.

We can probably turn around a fix for this fairly quickly… I’ll keep you posted here.
