Hi,

This happens quite often... and the solution is simple enough:
the contents of mnwh are included twice since it's the hostname - once
by the alias script, once by the hostname lookup.
I use to fix such situations using mixed-case names for files, lower
case for hostnames, upper case for classes

Cheers,
 Steffen
