cfengine 1.63 on Digital Unix/Tru64

[Hans . Kowallik]

Hi!

When I run cfengine on out Digital Unix 4.0f hosts I get:

Found: 30 interfaces
Interface 1: tu0
Host information for 6.3.6.0 not found
Interface 2: tu0
Host information for 0.0.0.0 not found
Interface 3: tu1
Host information for 6.3.6.0 not found
Interface 4: tu1
Host information for 0.0.0.0 not found
Interface 5: tu2
Host information for 6.3.6.0 not found
Interface 6: tu2
Host information for 0.0.0.0 not found
Interface 7: tu2

Apparently cfengine uses something like netstat -in to figure what
interfaces are configured and then tries to do a reverse nslookup on things
like
0a:00:2b:c4:03:f2

Eventually these lookups will time out, but we want to use cfengine for
tasks which happen "now" and not after several name server timeouts.
alpha:netstat /somewhere/netstat_cfengine.pl in cfrc doesn't help as
cfengine reads this file too late.

Any ideas???
