Forum: Cfengine Help Subject: How to setup protected server as its own policyhost? Author: sdodier Link to topic: https://cfengine.com/forum/read.php?3,21883,21883#msg-21883
Hello, I have an out of the ordinary request, and I wanted to see if anyone else is doing a similar setup. I have a server that is locked down due to its functionality as a log server. It currently has cfengine2 running on it. I have upgraded the rest of our environment to cfengine3, and am now working on the log server. I have basically made the log server a standalone cfengine installation. It serves as its own policyhost with its own mastercfengine repository. When trying to run cfengine on it, it tells me it can't connect to the 5308 port on the local server. This is because I don't have cf-serverd running and don't want to open any additional ports on the log server. My current installation of the cfengine2 is set up the same way, in that it does not have cfservd running with an associated port. Yet, cfengine2 knows that the policyhost is itself, and will just use the local directory structure to get what it needs. Is there any way to tell cfengine3 not to use a port and to just connect to the localhost directories for what it needs? Thanks in advance, Steve _______________________________________________ Help-cfengine mailing list Help-cfengine@cfengine.org https://cfengine.org/mailman/listinfo/help-cfengine
