Oops... after inspecting the directory which had config.new; Mike noticed that I had a config.new,r too. I then remember invoking rcs and having to un-rcs the config.new,r. For some reason the un-rcs'ed file (faulty config.new) had a byte difference in the first byte. Anyways, after copying over a new config.new, it worked fine. ==>Lancer---
