All of the variables in the main e-smith configuration database
/home/e-smith/configuration are available as predefined variables inside
any perl fragments in template fragments.

The problem is probably that you don't have a perl code fragment in the
template. In order to get the correct output for the fragment you show,
you would need:
# access control lists
acl \{
# local computers
local \{
pass trusted !ads !aggressive !audio-video !drugs !gambling...
redirect http:{ "//${SystemName}.${LocalDomainPrefix}${DomainName}" }/.....
...
Or you could make the whole template fragment one {}-enclosed perl code
fragment:
{
$OUT .= "# access control lists\n";
$OUT .= "acl {\n";
$OUT .= "# local computers\n";
$OUT .= "local {\n";
$OUT .= "pass trusted !ads !aggressive !audio-video !drugs !gambling\n";
$OUT .= "redirect http://${SystemName}.${LocalDomainPrefix}${DomainName}/....\n";;
....
}
$OUT is a predefined variable in Text::Template. See "perldoc Text::Template"
for more detailes.
