Thanks, Kurt, but I am not a sed/perl/python guru :( although I can use
them. I am sort of lazy, too :)
Right now I use xmlstarlet but I believe after two or three days playing
around with the cluster sutff, I will remember most of their
keys/syntax and can just vi that whole config file directly, instead of
mixing between using their tools and manually adding more stuff.
