RE: [hobbit] SUMMARY: BBWin load question (RESOLVED but is this a bug)



Thanks to John for pointing out that the bug was in my eyes. 

Solution was to be sure that the DEFAULT section of the hobbit-client.cfg
has to be at the end of the file.

I have look at the documentation may time and I had never seen the lines
that DEFAULT has to be at the end.
