<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Arial'>This is
something we do in our packages over here to allow easier patching and
customization later on (and for packages to drop their own hobbitlaunch
configurations in in a defined manner). Since Xymon will follow “directory”
directives and include all files underneath it, it’s easy to follow the
standard conf.d methodology here.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Arial'>Here’s some
code from our RPM that does this automatically. It might not completely work
for you, but its intent should be clear. Any chance we could get Xymon broken
out like this in its default state?<o:p></o:p></span></p>
