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.
