I'm now working on a bundle to accomplish the requirements. During this task I have one issue. The bundle looks like this; bundle agent reportstoserver { files: test:: "/var/www/html/reports" copy_from => secure_cp("$(def.dir_reports)/.", "$(sys.host)"), depth_search => recurse("inf"); } The bolded text is the issue. $sys.host should be all the clients on my network. Is that possible? Thnx _______________________________________________ Help-cfengine mailing list Help-cfengine@cfengine.org https://cfengine.org/mailman/listinfo/help-cfengine
