Have tried looking for packets on the client? Pehaps they're
not going where you think they are.  Also make sure you fixed
ALL occurences of 'mydomain.com' in cfservd.conf, update.conf,
and cfagent.conf.

How long did you wait?  Normally it sleeps up to 'splaytime'
minutes before it actually runs (so that all your clients don't
bang on the server at the same time).  For testing, try running
cfagent -v -q
which will cause it to execute immediately as well as show
what it's doing.

If that reveals nothing, and you're feeling adventurous, try
running that using strace -f.
