That's the odd thing -- the second command *never* gets run while the other
two *always* get run, even though they're in the same shellcommands stanza.
We've been trying to make it work for a couple weeks now.

Just to make sure, I deleted /var/cfengine/cfengine_lock_db on one of the
servers and re-ran the command.  Same problem.

Also, this behavior is consistent across all three boxes that this
particular stanza runs on.  It *never* works on any of the boxes unless we
use the -K option.
