Re: file edit

[Ian Wallace]

I'm no expert on this sort of thing, and have no idea when a 'defined' class 
really becomes active.  I'm thinking this is question for folks way more 
knowledgable.  As a general question is there anything in the tutorial on how 
this type of things works?  I know that cfengine is supposed to keep an up to 
the minute list of active classes (so that you can use modules, etc) but I 
have never had to do this.

Sorry I can't be of more help, maybe someone else has a work around.
cheers
