Re: {bb} hg- token <%s> is empty

[Peter J Zeiszler <pzeiszler@csc.com>]

We have hit that length problem before.  I make sure that groups are only
systems and that I don't exceed the limit.

I am thinking its one of those unprintable characters.  The only problem is
that I am not seeing anything like that in vi.

I don't want to post the files because of all of the names and IP
addresses.  The companies I work for do not like that information being
shared out.

I just thought of this -- could this be a length issue? I'm trying to
remember if I ran into this myself. Or perhaps, do you have any host
groups inside host groups? If I'm not mistaken, this -- sadly -- cannot
be done, or at least cannot with page groups.
