I've opened a ticket with Cfengine but I wanted to see if anyone else
can replicate this problem. I've whittled it down to its essence, having
copied in the library.cf:mog() body for test consistency. Basically, I
cannot seem to get Cfengine Nova to create a directory and set its
ownership and permissions. I have tested this on RHEL 5 and Solaris 10.
Can anyone duplicate this?

Thanks,
Justin
