Shouldn't the administrator have the option to decide how trustworthy
the DNS service is? There are certainly no shortage of shoddy DNS
services out there but not all. Making the Cfengine do some checking
such as PTR records might be compromise.

I am thinking about how to respond to this. Principally, it is not a bug but a
feature to
force the use of IP addresses for the initial authentication. No matter whether
you use
DHCP or not, IP addresses are more secure than hostnames and your DHCP ranges
are at least
as stable as the names the
Save yourself two shell commands - if you invoke cal with no arguments, it
gives you this month's calendar. So skip the first two calls to date :-)

Okay, I'll see your classes and raise you a regexp for clarity!
classes:
January|March|May|July|August|October|December::
"Last_Saturday" and => { "Saturday", classmatch("Day(2[5-9]|3[01])") };
April|June|September|November::
"Last_Saturday" and => { "Saturday", classmatch("Da

Excellent work, both of you. This type of calendar work combined with
remote classes can really drive home the idea of using Cf3 as an
enterprise scheduler.
We can further expand this idea to do things such as define business
holidays when jobs, such as ETL or other financial batches, should n

Thanks Watson,
Seems we can combine cf-runagent and cf-execd, just let cf-runagent ensure
cf-execd in the crontab and this is cheap.
Thanks,
Ping.

Use edit files to add a cf-execd cron entry. There are examples on this
list and in online documentation.
The runagent control section and the server access_rules control how the
runagent will work.
Performance depends one what the agent is doing. Some promises are cheap
others are expensive.
hi,
I am a newbee to cfengine and just go through the refrence and tutorial.
There are two ways to run cf-agent:
a) install cf-execd in crontab on every agent machine.
b) use cf-runagent to trigger.
My question is how to ensure cf-agent there(in case someone remove the dir) and
run as expect

It does not take into account leap year, but it should
I never recommend using pipes in cfengine. You can do classmatch, AND, OR
on the existing dates to accomplish the result.
Perhaps first and last Mon-Sun are useful classes to build in.

okay, I got it. Kinda hacky with all the pipes:
vars:
"year" string => execresult("/usr/bin/date +%Y","noshell");
"month"string => execresult("/usr/bin/date +%m","noshell");
"last_day" string => execresult("/usr/bin/cal $(month) $(year) |
awk '{print $7}' | grep -E "^[0-9]" |
Interesting. I had something similar with how to schedule for the last
day of the month (ya, the shell commands are cheating a bit):
vars:
"year" string => execresult("/usr/bin/date +%Y","noshell");
"month"string => execresult("/usr/bin/date +%m","noshell");
"last_day" string
Over at Ars there was a discussion about scheduling a cron job for the
last Saturday of each month. Alas, cron cannot do this on its own. What
followed as a lot of short scripts to help but very few were portable.
One of the newer goals of Cfengine is to be an enterprise scheduler. For
