Hmmm,
This may actually be an issue of priority ? I haven't tested that =20
before when doing this.
Maybe moving your .cfg files that are in customers down a level to =20
common may fix the issue. It may be trying to fully vet the file =20
before recursing into the sub dirs.
Like I say I haven't seen that before but I haven't tested it either. =20
You could also do a second cfg_dir line that points to your common =20
service group and other high level files after your customer cfg_dir =20
directive.
Try those items and see if it changes the results any.
