The point is: fcopy (and all other parts of FAI too) uses classes to determine,
which version of a file should be copied, because, e.g., /etc/hostname can't be
the same on all hosts installed with FAI. Thus, all versions of this single file
are kept in one directory <some_path>/fai/files/etc/hostname and fcopy
determines, which of them has to copied to the host being set up.
Consider the following example: Your hosts are "alpha" and "beta" and you want
to copy /etc/hostname using fcopy. In that case, you need
<some_path>/fai/files/etc/hostname/alpha and
<some_path>/fai/files/etc/hostname/beta
Then "fcopy /etc/hostname" will do the job for you.
HTH,

Thanks. It's works as I want now. I was in the bad context of something like
<some_path>/fai/files/alpha/etc/hostname
<some_path>/fai/files/beta/etc/hostname
The fcopy message could be more clear for newbees like me,
distinguishing 2 cases:
if file exists and is not a directory -> "$ps should be a directory
containing templates"
if not existent -> "inexistent directory: $ps"
Thanks again.
