Sorry, I should have been more clear. I was saying that using files_single_copy looks like it could be a replacement for your symlinking (depending on your file hierarchy). You would use it instead of creating a duplicate structure with symlinks pointing to what you want. Store your files like this MASTER/etc/sudoers MASTER/etc/sudoers.somegroup MASTER/etc/sudoers.hostname Then you try to copy the files from most specific to least. If sudoers.hostname does not exist, it will try sudoers.somegroup, if that doesnt exist it will grab plain old default sudoers. It may not work out well for your setup but its worth taking a look at. It looks like you found copylink patterns so hopefully your issues is resolved anyway. _______________________________________________ Help-cfengine mailing list Help-cfengine@cfengine.org https://cfengine.org/mailman/listinfo/help-cfengine
