Thanks for saving me time researching what I thought would surely be a
bootstrap option (-f seems logical).
In case it helps anybody plowing the same road, I was trying to bootstrap a
Cygwin install from an Ubuntu host.
I ended up creating a symlink from /var/cfengine to /var/lib/cfengine3 (ubuntu
package uses this as the working dir instead of /var/cfengine)
Here's an example of the cfengine directives required to create the symlink:
bundle agent policy_server
{
files:
ubuntu.policy_servers::
"/var/cfengine/."
comment => "Create link to CFEngine bootstrap
location",
link_from => link_var_cfengine;
}
body link_from link_var_cfengine
{
source => "$(sys.workdir)";
link_type => "symlink";
}
