Thank you for your reply, sadly, that's exactly what I've done (doubled
up).  I'll go fix that.  Correct me if I'm wrong but, from your reply, it
appears that I need to examine both the manager's agent.conf as well as the
agent's ossec.conf to determine the "effective" configuration.


That is correct. Unfortunately that would be correct in any conceivable
scenario I can come up with.
At best you can minimize the ossec.conf and utilize the agent.conf as much
as possible.
