Don't it always happen this way...Found the problem.  When I was moving
paths around I accidentally left part of the apache configuration with
an extra slash which would cause the "SetEnv
BLOSXOM_CONFIG_DIR /usr/local/monitoring/rss/config" never to take
effect.

Works great now, thanks for your work :)
