[hobbit] Custom web pages based on user?

List, I guess I need a bit more help.  The following works, except 
bbtest complains that there are duplicate entries:

page AllServers All Servers
192.168.0.10 conn cpu disk hardware http imap mailq memory msgs procs 
raid smtp ssh
192.168.0.11 conn cpu disk hardware http memory msgs procs raid ssh
192.168.0.12 conn cpu disk hardware http memory msgs procs raid ssh

page UserA Help Desk Only
group-only http|imap|mailq|smtp
192.168.0.10 conn cpu disk hardware http imap mailq memory msgs procs 
raid smtp ssh
192.168.0.11 conn cpu disk hardware http memory msgs procs raid ssh

The idea here is that UserA would have access to 
http://site/UserA/index.html and nothing else... 

Thanks in advance...
