Which one is correct?
Sorry about that - the man-page was right, as I suppose you found out.

I've corrected this, and also allowed for a more readable format
"LOG logfilename MATCH=pattern IGNORE=excludepattern COLOR=color"
so you can have the parameters in random order.
It would greatly help debugging LOG directives if this tag was supported by 
the hobbitd_client --test mode...
Got it - I've implemented this now.
Two more ideas for the beta release
- SunOS client
  Here is a the df command I use in hobbitclient-sunos.sh

  df -kl | egrep "^Filesystem|^/dev/|^swap" | egrep -v "/var/run|volatile|cdrom"

  This one does the right job under Solaris 8/9/10 (probably 7 too)
I'll check this out.
- All clients
  It would be good to be able to manage the client-side modules
  launch centraly (actually localy managed in clientlaunch.cfg)
Let me think about this.
