That doesn't quite work for this scenario.  It would mean ssh-ing
to the switch to grab it, and that's pretty locked down.  We already
have cron jobs running on the switches that tftp the config file
to a server, and I'd prefer to leverage off that.

Also, the yacc parser would let me do some validation checks
before we push new configs.
