When I first started using Autostat it worked when it tried to check the yahoo configuration put autostat would just hang if I didn't have the proper info in there. Here is the specific option I had problems with.

mygw mygw none me@my.domain This is our main gateway

I had no idea what none really was or what I could put in it's place. So when I made my own I made a mistake and had something else besids none and autostat just hung and didn't do anything. I think there should be some sort of error checking so the user knows if there is a problem.

    just make note of it at the top of conf.sample.
