Yes, and it roxors very hard. > update.conf refuses to overwrite itself with messages such as: > cf:cfengine::/var/cfengine/inputs/update.conf:54: Image loop: file/dir > copies to itself or missing destination file What we do to stop this (and because we're in a heterogeneous environment with regard to SSH/non-SSH hosts) is to have everyone contact the host 'cfserver', but on the machines that we SSH to, there is an entry in /etc/hosts which forces the 'cfserver' hostname to be 127.0.0.1. This has completely solved the above error message for us. - Matt _______________________________________________ Help-cfengine mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/help-cfengine
