Hi Stuart,

Following the above example, the idea is that you should put:

    run_dir "/usr/local/dsc/run/ns0";

into your dsc.conf.

I see that the dsc.conf.sample file does not have any node name
on the sample run_dir line.  Do you think it would help if the
dsc.conf.sample said this instead?:

    run_dir "/usr/local/dsc/run/NODENAME";
