cfexecd is giving me the following error: Unknown host: web.turner.com Make sure that fully qualified names can be looked up at your site! i.e. www.gnu.org, not just www. If you use NIS or /etc/hosts make sure that the full form is registered too as an alias!
I added web to /etc/hosts just to make sure, same error. It resolves in DNS just fine. As you can see in the defined objects below, sunman, is the policy/file host. It's only in DNS and it seems to work fine.

If only in cfagent.conf, or in both I get this error. cfagnet.conf control: domain = ( turner.com ) smtpserver = ( web.turner.com ) sysadm = ( [EMAIL PROTECTED] ) I've also tried with quotes, still the same error. -- David Cress Lead Engineer CNN Internet Technologies http://www.cnn.com -------------------- (404) 878-1921 What exists, exists; what is, is. _______________________________________________ Help-cfengine mailing list Help-cfengine@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/help-cfengine
