Usually all output gets sent to the 'sysadm' address as defined in
cfagent.conf. Either the diffs could be displayed in the email (ala
Brendan) or you could use cfengine alerts, ie:
groups:
etc_hosts_modifed = (
ReturnZero(/usr/bin/diff /etc/hosts /path/to/canonical/hosts) )
alerts:
etc_hosts_modified::
"/etc/hosts modified!"
As far as roll back goes, most actions create backups of modified files.
This allows you to at least roll back by hand, or conceivably
implement a rollback feature.
Cheers,

So that could easily be expanded to call a script that would detect if
there were any diffs and then send an email, I suppose. Or does any output
of the shell command get automatically sent to the sys admin specified?
