I am teaching a Cfengine class now, and the client asked, we have multiple sites, and we want to be able to include files (using inputs) based on classes. They want to have separate files for separate sites, i.e. an italy.cf for Italy, germany.cf for Germany, etc. More on this in a separate thread. > One thing I find slightly annoying is not being able to use globs for > inputs.

Yes, being able to abstract bundles with methods is a great help. _______________________________________________ Help-cfengine mailing list Help-cfengine@cfengine.org https://cfengine.org/mailman/listinfo/help-cfengine
