[chef] Running Ohai and including custom plugins

[John Alberts < >]

I'm using the Ohai cookbook which I have saving my custom Ohai plugins to /etc/chef/ohai_plugins.  This works great and the path is found when Chef runs and uses Ohai to get info; however, when I get on a server and run ohai directly, it doesn't use my custom plugins.  I've tried using the -f option to pass the path to my plugin, but then it only uses my plugin and not the defaults.  The -d option doesn't seem to do anything, or maybe I'm not using it right.

Is there any way for me to tell Ohai to also load my custom plugins when I run ohai from the command line?

Thanks
