Why list iteration and copy doesn't work

[Michael Grubb]

In the documentation for list iteration it says this:
"Iterative expansion is currently restricted to:

    * In the directory field of the admit/deny server access rules,
    * In the `from' field of a copy action,
    * In the server field of the copy action,
    * In the directory field of the disable action,
    * In the directory field of the files action,
    * In the `to' field of a multiple link action,
    * In the directory field of the required/disk action,
    * In a resolve item.
    * In the directory field of a tidy action,
    * Names in the ignore action. "

Here are the relevant entries in update.conf:

import:
        any::
                main.cf

#... snip ...
copy:
        any::
                $(cf_master_inputs)
                        dest=$(cf_workdir)/inputs
                        r=inf
                        mode=600
                        type=binary
                        exclude=*.lst
                        exclude=*.in
                        exclude=Makefile
                        server=$(cf_policy_hosts)


The relevant entry in main.cf:

control:
        any::
                cf_policy_hosts = ( polserv1.domain:polserv2.domain )


I get this when I run "cfagent --inform --debug 2"




Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong?

Thanks,
Michael Grubb

Checking copy from polserv1.domain:polserv2.domain:/var/cfengine/ masterfiles/inputs to /var/cfengine/inputs The "client" side of this (cfagent) is running on Tru64 5.1B, the "server" (cfservd) running on Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS r3.
