That is exactly what I meant. The default .conf files will be installed, with all values commented out. It's just a skeleton that explains what could be there, and how to specify it.

The changes are in CVS, and the sample conf files should be installed by default now. Note that they will not overwrite any previous versions - RPM is smart enough to detect when you've made your own alterations.

I would actually suggest keeping a default gmetad.conf file in the
package as an example, even if it is just all the default parameters
commented out.  Does the package come with a default gmond.conf package
as well, I don't see it in the file list.

I would also suggest splitting the package into gmond and gmetad
sub-packages since gmetad isn't needed on all of the monitored nodes.

I'm going to change a few things with the ganglia-monitor-core RPM spec file
and packaging.

1. There is no /var/lib/ganglia folder created.
2. The /etc/gmetad.conf file does not get installed.
3. Documentation?

Matt, the other thing is this: Is there a way to specify gmetad polling
intervals on a per-datasource basis? That would be very useful, especially when some sources are close, and some are far away over potentially slow
links. Maybe something to put into a 2.5.1 release.
