[ARGUS] argus -F /path/to/argus.conf no longer in 2.0.6?

Hey Richard,
I have it fixed. Here is a patch:

The second little chunk is the one to get the -F going.
The real bug was that it should have been [++i] not [i++].

So am I. :-(

But I've been running 18 hour days for the past month and a half.  The
aftermath of having about a hundred hosts broken into makes for some
interesting politics...
