Re: Recursion Problem??

[David E. Nelson]

Hi Adam,

I just used/tried:

copy:

    any::

        /var/cfengine/master_inputs/foo  # Specific file
            dest=/tmp/bar # Specific file
            r=0
            mode=0600
            backup=false
            server=$(policyhost)

w/o any problems.

HTH,
         /\/elson
