Re: [Bigsister-general] Using the logfile monitor

[Andrew Miehs <suppressed>]

Ahhh....

cfg=/usr/.... instead of cnf....

And it all works now, Yipeee!!!

That still leaves open the question on setting....

BigSister:common:dl

I have noticed that there is something in BigSister.pm that reads in  
an opt_d (from memory)...
But how do I set it?


Thanks for all the help!
