Building Hostgroups using Host Config Files

[Zac]

Thanks for the response, but I am trying to avoid the confusion of having
some hosts set in a hostgroup definition and others by just using the
hostgroup line in the host definition.  If I setup some hosts on the members
line in a  hostgroup definition and then some with the hostgroup line in the
host definition, it populates properly, but I think that will be messy and
confusing in the long run.  I will cc the devel list and see if anyone can
tell me if I can avoid having hostgroup definitions.
