[hobbit] Sanity check for config files

[Everett, Vernon]

Hi all

I appreciate the answers, but they have nothing to do with my question.
If the file doesn't support the include directive, I can simply cron a
task to merge the files.

What I wanted to know, is if there is a method of sanity-checking the
files before presenting them to hobbit.

Remember, Windoze admins are going to be editing at least one of these
files through Samba.
Windoze editors leave <CR><LF> rubbish everywhere, and all sorts of
unwanted formating.
I need to sanitise these files before giving them do Hobbit.
But this is the easy bit.

How do I check that these files are syntactictically correct from a
Hobbit perspective?

Regards
    Vernon

I could add that I'm using the include directive in all config files

And practically the only change in the original config is the additional
"include" directive.


Such schema allows easy maintain config files and do regular updates of
the "current" hobbit server.
