Not directly related to cfengine either, but I've been seeing an issue recently on FC4 systems (not on my RHEL4 though), where cronjobs dumping to/from unmounted automount points don't function. It seems that the mount calls aren't done foreground/blocking, and almost as if the tar processes are timing out the writes.

Similar to what you're seeing perhaps. I don't think it's a cfengine issue fortunately. I haven't had a chance to sit down with this and resolve it yet, but I have a hunch it's dependent on vendor-applied patches to autofs.

I am encountering problems copying all the home directories from a central server (Solaris) to the cfengine clients (Solaris) with automounter controlling home directory mounting on client. Cfengine uses the uid of the first home directory that does NOT exist on the client to set the owner for the remaining client home directories. I have included snippets of auto_home, cfengine.conf, and log file from running cfagent. The log file shows that a0193150, which does exist, processes correctly, but the directory ezavala does NOT exist so rwalkup (and all subsequent directories) are set to the ezavala uid. Has anyone seen this problem or know of a work around?
