Some errors today...

[Carter Bullard]

Hey Chris,

If you had the options switched:
   argus -F argus.conf -d

Then the command line "-d" would win, as it is parsed after
the configuration file is parsed and processed.  Again,
your luck is/has been very good.

Ahh, right ;)   I must have missed that... in the argus.conf file, I did
have 
it set to daemon=no, so the fact my script has been working.... could
that be 
attributed at argus taking priority in the argus.conf file over command
line 
options?
