RE: Moving cfengine from one file system to another

[Garrett, Matt M SITI-ITDIEEE]

I have found the problem.

By doing a truss on the cfservd on the server 
e.g
recv(3, " t   6 8\0\0\0\0", 8, 0)               = 8
recv(3, " S Y N C H   1 0 5 3 6 1".., 68, 0)    = 68
time()                                          = 1053614055
lstat("/usr/local/cfengine/inputs/config/cfservd.conf", 0xFEA03B68) = 0
resolvepath("/usr/local/cfengine/inputs/config/cfservd.conf", 
"/local/data1/cfengine/inputs/config/cfservd.conf", 1024) = 36
getuid()                                        = 0 [0]
fstat(6, 0xFEA03438)  

It can be seen that resolvepath is pointing to /local/data1/ so the fix is to 
make sure
that cfservd.conf file on the server has the following admin 
/local/data1/cfengine/inputs      *.DOMAIN

The restart cfservd and all is fixed.


I should have done this in the first place.
