xcmd will not update to new path based on mh.private.ini

Hello,

I'm attempting to use the xcmd_file to issue commands to mh from another program. Since I would eventually like to make the filesystem readonly I do not want to have to write commands to the standard $Pgm_Root/house_cmd.txt which is specified in the mh.ini file. Even though i have used a different path in my mh.private.ini file, misterhouse refuses to use anything but the default specified in mh.ini.

What do I need to do to get mh to accept the new path specified in my private ini file?  It also seems to be ignoring my gd=0 command as well, so i get that annoying error on startup everytime. All other parameters in my private ini file seem to work though...

I would appreciate any help here. Thanks.

Matt
