Well I was just using a report to illustrate. Moreso than a report the class triggering some action to happen like another bundle that went and tried to restart the service or something. The thought being drop in re-usable without having to alter the bundle. You might need to write some more policy around the result etc .. I tried using the readtcp function first, which is how I wound up with the check_http_status bundle. I was only getting the http status code back, similar to the example. I used curl when I want to check that some specific content on the page exists. -- Nick Anderson <[email protected]> _______________________________________________ Help-cfengine mailing list [email protected] https://cfengine.org/mailman/listinfo/help-cfengine
