It's not something I've really looked at despite many active host entries on my system. Can you reverse the order so that the configuration without an option is what the larger group qualifies for first and your devices requiring the specific option are the ones that are the special cases. Alternatively, can you disqualify the devices requiring no option so they do not receive the configuration with the unwanted option at all? Same idea, potentially very different execution.

John PS, ISC, that's bogus. On Wed, May 4, 2016 at 1:20 AM, Glenn Satchell <glenn.satch...@uniq.com.au> wrote: > This topic comes up from time to time.

Message-ID: <1462364025.6964.165.ca...@yahoo.co.uk> Content-Type: text/plain; charset="utf-8" "complain" is wrongly chosen word in my view. I'd have been still writing bash-whole-long scripts only to put & start/manage things together - I did not mind it, but with systemd I can go and script something else. I think systemd is one of few best things recently happened to Linux, earlier it was all jungle, everybody's own jungle. I've gone to systemd list, lets see.

We have many thousands of IP phones. I don't even have a list of them, all I have is the MAC prefix that I use to assign them to a group. The group sets their options, now I have a request that this one specific phone not get the options. Thanks though!
