It sounds like you may want to look at bindtointerface for your clients with
more than one NIC. We use it quite extensively because we have hosts with a
management network interface and a primary interface that is dedicated for all
other traffic. This is coded in our promises.cf which is read by all hosts. A
pseudo-code example of the syntax we use would look like this:
# Use the -mgt interface for all machines that have one
hostname1_my_net::
bindtointerface => "123.23.44.99";
hostname2_my_net::
bindtointerface => "123.23.56.77";
hostname3_my_net::
bindtointerface => "123.54.20.17";
In this way, both your cfengine server and the client will talk over the same
interface consistantly.
