You can also put the name of the category in |
| 13 |
/path/to/overlay/profiles/categories to eliminate the error message. |

That seems a bit more appropriate, since it allows you to edit the |
| 15 |
overlay without mucking around in /etc. Also, if you publish your |
| 16 |
overlay or sync it to several of your own machines, you or your users |
| 17 |
don't need to edit anything when the overlay changes. |
