Hello,
I am trying to extend the configurations that I use to add users to my
systems to also remove users. I have extended my user array to include a value
called valid, this will always be either true or false.
The idea is to set a class based upon the value of valid, however the
class is always defined no mater what the actual value of valid is.
I have tried to use regcmp and strcmp, I believe they should both work in
this case, however I am not getting the results I expect.
This is my configuration:
body common control {
bundlesequence => { "test" };
}
bundle agent test
{
vars:
"users" string => "Test User 1";
"users" string => "123";
"users" string => "dba";
"users" string => "/home/testuser1";
"users" string => "/bin/bash";
"users" string => "false";
"users" string => "false";
"users" string => "Test User 2";
"users" string => "124";
"users" string => "dba";
"users" string => "/home/testuser2";
"users" string => "/bin/bash";
"users" string => "true";
"users" string => "false";
methods:
"any" usebundle => check_user("test.users");
}
bundle agent check_user(user)
{
vars:
"index" slist => getindices("$(user)");
classes:
#"valid_user" expression => regcmp("true","$($(user)[$(index)])");
"valid_user" expression => strcmp("true","$($(user)[$(index)])");
reports:
valid_user::
"USER: $(index) is showing up as valid with a status of $($(user)[$(index)])";
!valid_user::
"USER: $(index) is showing up as invalid with a status of
$($(user)[$(index)])";
And this is what it produces:
R: USER: testuser2 is showing up as valid with a status of true
R: USER: testuser1 is showing up as valid with a status of false
Is my use of regcmp and or strcmp correct? Should I be using a different method
to define these things? I am about a year out from being able to tie my LINUX
and AIX environments into AD, so unfortunately that is not an option.
