I figured the problem was I ran the command via the dsh (distributed
shell) on a 16 node cluster. That shell does not run the profile.

The errors I got are the 2 lines in my email, that's all. But it's because
of the dsh, it works local on the node.

I deleted all existing keys, ran cfkey, changed the cfservd config to
trust the ip and restarted cfservd. Still the same error:
Connect to b80cw = 192.168.240.254 on port cfengine
cfengine:b80n11: Trusting server identity and willing to accept key from
b80cw=192.168.240.254
Saving public key /var/cfengine/ppkeys/root-192.168.240.254.pub
cfengine:b80n11: Server returned error: Host authentication failed. Did
you forget the domain name?
The server does have the correct root-192.168.240.11.pub which I compared
with the localhost.pub on the client. The root-192.168.240.254.pub is the
same as the localhost.pub on the server. Still isn't the correct key.
There must be something else to trust the key?
Thanks,
