Hi, I am trying to configure our automatic linux install system (Fully Automated Install or FAI) to do a mimimal debian linux install and then to run cfengine to install all of the config files and additional packages. I already have cfengine to do stuff like copying a ntp.conf file to the linux client and install the ntp package. This all works as intended stand-alone. I mean that I can make a change to the ntp.conf file on the server and all the cfengine clients automatically download it.
I have a couple of problems the biggest is that I don't know how to get the cfengine server to know that when I'm doing a reinstall, it has to accept a new key. When I run cfagent on the new install, it generates an error message that says the keys don't match. If I delete the key from the server, it works. I guess I'm asking how to break the security on cfagent just for reinstalls. The second problem is that only some of the packages get installed when I run cfagent on the client. If I run it 3 or 4 times, eventually, they all get installed. Perhaps this is an apt system question but I was hoping someone on this list had dealt with this problem before. _______________________________________________ Help-cfengine mailing list Help-cfengine@cfengine.org https://cfengine.org/mailman/listinfo/help-cfengine
