[hobbit] BBWin 0.11 Centralised Config problems

You should use [win32] instead of   [dcstest2] in your

Does this mean that you cannot have a client entry in client-local.cfg or
can we change the configclass in bbwin.cfg?

Also the `COMMAND` config parameter in client-local.cfg don't appear to
work. I have the following entry in my client-local.cfg

file:`C:\listing.cmd`

The listing.cmd file contains the following entry
dir "C:\CFusionMX\Mail\Spool"

hobbit-client.cfg contains
FILE %C:\CFusionMX\Mail\Spool\.* MTIME>600 COLOR=red TRACK

But all i get is a No Files Checked in the status window

thanks
Nick
