Thanks Neil, That works better. Strange, however, I wonder if it still waits for the process to finish before cf-agent exits. # cfagent -IK ... -> Executing '/usr/local/ibAdmin/bin/update_cfengine_inventory' ...(timeout=-678,owner=-1,group=-1) -> Completed execution of /usr/local/ibAdmin/bin/update_cfengine_inventory -> Link /var/cfengine3/failsafe/bin/cf-agent as promised after several seconds.... -> Completed execution of /usr/local/ibAdmin/bin/update_cfengine_inventory So I'm guessing cf-agent can not 'fire and forget' in true fashion. I wanted to avoid hanging cf-agent if my external process hung. _______________________________________________ Help-cfengine mailing list Help-cfengine@cfengine.org https://cfengine.org/mailman/listinfo/help-cfengine
