Thanks. By experimentation I discovered activate earlier today. I assume it puts the desired configuration into some cryptic actual configuration files.

I searched a lot of online anecdotes and tutorials and activation wasn't something that was obviously pointed out as required. Perhaps this could be included in some FAQ or tutorial?
