Wouldn't that be handled by the cf file that you run on the system? Cfengine can be told "if this file looks like this, then do that" or "if the file doesn't look like this, then do something else".

That's kind of the point of classes to begin with...

Or maybe I'm misunderstanding your question.

Hello all,

Is there a way to query clients from a cfengine server?   What I would
like to be able to do, is to query clients to know about specific
configurations of their systems.  For example, before I take any
actions on a client, I might like to know the content of a file before
trying to do modification to it.

I feel lile shooting in the dark when using cfengine without knowing
the exact state of a system.

Thanks,
Bern
