Hi all. I had some mail problems during the last days so i think I missed the original post with the link to the tarball of the bb-hostedit

Can someone post it?

Thanks

The tarball has been updated; new users don't need to download this patch.

Hi Thomas, thanks for helping test out the script :)

Ahh, I was handling comments incorrectly (if they had whitespace before
them on a line they were being parsed, instead of ignored).  Now fixed.

If you comment out the line that reads in hosts, its to be expected that
you wont see any on the pages/subpages :)  I assumed (yet another
possibly incorrect assumption on my part) that you couldn't have the
same hostname defined in two places in your bigbrother/hobbit hierarchy;
I'll have to play around with this some to see how bigbrother behaves.
Hopefully, I'll have a patch out in an hour or so.

Regards,
-Eric
