Hi Paul, This is working on my end but here are a couple of things to check. The $HOSTNAME variable is exported from /etc/profile so it should be accessible to the shell running multicron-p.
export HOSTNAME="$(hostname)" Check to see what the output of the command hostname is. If it is empty then make sure that you have a file /etc/hostname. If it doesn't exist then you can create it manually or have network.conf create it by setting CONFIG_HOSTNAME=YES under General Settings in network.conf.
