I didn’t notice it was a “>”, so… by default is there anything at the config file?
I agree with Rahul, it must be “>>” instead of “>”.

I’m no linux expert (in fact I just installed ubuntu 8.10 and am having keyboard issues) but shouldn’t the command have a >> instead of > ? You wouldn’t want to overwrite the config file…
