Re: [nv-l] locations

[Paul <pstroud@bellsouth.net>]

John,
Have you already customized your map to include locations? For the 
script to work, you map must already look as you want it to with
locations in place and all the network devices properly placed. It
simply creates the location.conf file from the locations you already
created.
