[rancid] Re: What is the idea behind of LIST_OF_GROUPS?

[bob watson]

This is the grouping of like devices that you want to display in the
web page. This would be limited by how far you want your users to
scroll! (technically, the limit would be environment space allocated
by the list_of_groups environment variable - 32 kilobit ! ???) See
xargs for a discussion on environment space.
