[webmin-l] Monitoring, DNS-lookup

I'm trying to set-up a DNS-lookup monitor using latest version.

If I do the same thing from the CLI, using nslookup, everything checks 
out fine, but when I configure the "same" monitor in Webmin, it reports 
the monitor as being down.

Is there a way to figure out why?

I suspect one reason may be that a CNAME construct is used for the 
address I want to lookup, and instead of an IP address, the CNAME is 
returned and no further lookup is performed. Is there a way to change 
this, as Webmin wants me to enter an IP-address to expect.
