I think the current behavior is the correct behavior -- where the per-host config file variable data completely replaces the defaults set in the config.pl. The reason is that there are some settings in config.pl where is it not sensible to add the value in config.pl to the value in the per-host file; such as the rsync command. It would be bad from a discoverability standpoint to have some variables be additive, and others ablative. They should all behave the same way; and the only sensible way IMHO is current behavior. Please correct me if I misunderstand your statement and intent. -- Carl Soderstrom Systems Administrator Real-Time Enterprises www.real-time.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Let Crystal Reports handle the reporting - Free Crystal Reports 2008 30-Day trial.
