cfserver expands to the hostname 'cfserver.mydomain.com', which is a
valid class name, right? I currently have it working with this:
control:
cfserver = ( cfserver.mydomain.com )
copy:
!cfserver.mydomain.com::
/etc/shadow dest=/etc/shadow
mode=600
server=${cfserver}
encrypt=true
verify=true
But I don't like having the same configuration item (the name of the
cfserver) in the configuration file twice.
