Thank you Neil, that worked perfectly.

Unrelated question, What's the "cfengine approved" way to get data from a 
client back to a server?

Once a day I've got cfengine making a mysql dump on a mysql master.  I'd like 
to get that dump file back to the cfengine master, to use to configure other 
machines that will be mysql replication slaves.   I could use some kind of 
out-of-band mechanism to get the dump back to the cfengine server (rsync, scp, 
etc), I couldn't find any clear reference to how one might do it in cfengine. 

I could run cf-serverd on the mysql master as a server for the dump file, and 
then run a promise on the cfengine master server to keep it in sync - is that 
the recommend method?  Or is there some simpler mechanism available?

Cheers
Simon
