Cool ... this will make my pre-Starbucks script something like

        augtool <<EOF
        set /files/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0/ONBOOT no
        set /files/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-br0/ONBOOT no
        EOF
        chkconfig NetworkManager on

and the reverse to turn bridged networking back on ;)

I committed this, with one small change:

Changed that to

        let lns = (comment | kv)*
        
and updated test_ifcfg.aug accordingly, so that comments and key/value
lines can be freely mixed. The way comments are handled in yum.aug
(where I think the "comment* . kv*" came from) is a little more
complicated to make sure that a comment in between kv's does not end a
section in the yum config files.

thanks for the patch,
David
