Ok, I tested this stripped down:
bundle agent pass
{
vars:
"gotpw" int => readstringarray("pw","/tmp/pw.txt","#[^\n]*",":","3","200");
reports:
cfengine::
"pw is $(pw[1])";
}
If in /tmp/pw.txt I have this (which is what the comments in the promise say it
should be):
root:foo:
then I get this:
R: pw is foo
If in /tmp/pw.txt I have this (which is what you said is in your file):
:foo:
then I get this:
R: pw is $(pw[1])
So it looks like there's nothing wrong with your promises. It's the file you're
reading from that is wrong.
I would also suggest that your edit_field promise be changed from this:
edit_field => col(":","2","$(pw[1])","set");
to this:
edit_field => col(":","2","$(pw[$(user)][1])","set");
Then you can change the password for any user when calling that bundle.
