I am using cfengine 2.1.16 on CentOS 4.3. I have machines on a local
192.168 network and machines with public ip's outside of our local
network. I would like to be able to manage all of the policy from one
place and keep all of the machines consistant both inside and out. It
was recommended on #cfengine that I rdist the cfengine configs from
the master policyhost on the 192.168 network to a machine on the
outside network which would act as the policy host for the external
machines. The trouble then becomes: How do I configure the update.conf
and cfagent.conf files to use the appropriate policy host? We have
separate dns for internal and external but all of our internal
hostnames are required to end with int.mydomain.com and our externals
are mydomain.com. So I cannot just make cfengine.mydomain.com a CNAME
to the appropriate machines in the internal and external zone files
and just have it work out. It would be nice if I could use the 192_168
class which gets defined to set the policyhost to my internal server
otherwise set it to the external.
Any suggestions? Thanks!
Hi there,
you can do exactly what you suggest.
here would be a snippet from update.conf:
#----------------------------------------
AllowRedefinitionOf = ( policyhost )
!192.168::
policyhost = ( host1.mydomain.com )
192_168::
policyhost = ( host2.int.mydomain.com )
#----------------------------------------
I'm not sure if the different domain names would cause a problem, though.
Sincerely,
Jason
