[Openstack] Nova ignores nova.conf

Nova does not respect the options set in the /etc/nova/nova.conf file. 
I've seen some examples with "--" prefixing the flags, as if they are 
command line arguments. I've also seen examples without.

I've tried removing the "--", that does nothing.

Specifically, I've set
--flat_network_bridge=br0
--fixed_range=10.0.3.0/24
--flat_network_dhcp_start=10.0.3.1

I always get a br100 created with an IP address of 10.0.2.33

This is really annoying. If I empty the /etc/nova/nova.conf nothing gets 
created.

I've greped all sorts of places for "defaults", but come up blank.

Any idea why this happens?

Simon
