> The javadocs and sample config files are out of date with respect to valid
> agent configurations. The docs and sample file also mention "host" instead of
> "agent", which can get confused with the hostname of a machine. The agent
> name specified in the config file should by convention be named "agent" to
> make it clearer. An agent name specified in the config file (props file) is
> what needs to get passed to the '\-n' option when running the flume-ng
> script. The affected code should also be updated to reflect this 'host' to
> 'agent' change.
