The problem is that cfservd only rereads the file if the file changes...
it does not know when LDAP content changes....

This is a weakness of not having all the info in the file.
CFengine cannot read ldap for every file it transfers, so there
has to be some way of knowing when to reread the data ...
any suggestions?
