Client never attempts to contact server

[Linda White]

When I run the cfagent command on the cfengine client, the client
never attempts to connect to the server. I have installed tethereal on
the server, and there is no traffic generated when the cfagent command
is executed. The output of cfagent -v does not produce any errors, but
the update does not take place. I am trying the cfservd.conf,
update.conf, and cfagent.conf files from
http://www.linuxjournal.com/article/6848. I am running cfengine 2.1.12
with berkeleydb 4.3 on Debian. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
