I am working on an article to introduce more sysadmins to cfengine 3,
and I need help from the cfengine community putting together working
standalone examples of the power and simplicity of cfengine 3.

By standalone, I mean I should be able to run "cf-agent -f
example1.cf" and have example1.cf be the only file in
/var/cfengine/inputs, and have it work.

Here is what I would like to see:

1. Make sure /proc/sys/vm/swappiness is set to 0 on Linux servers.

2. Make sure root crontab contains an entry for "0 0 * * * /sysadmin/nightly.sh"

3. Make sure ntpd and snmpd are running.

4. Alert an alert if any mounted filesystem exceeds 75% utilization.

5. Alert if there is any account with uid 0 other than root.

That should be enough, I don't want to overwhelm my readers with too
many examples.

I am going to work on coding these up, but if you already have some
working code that does this, please let me know.

Thanks,
Aleksey
