Re: RecursiveCheck was looking at ... lstat: No such file or directory

[Tod Oace]

I am also seeing various lstat errors from RecursiveCheck. All of mine 
so far this month are from recursive "file:" sweeps.

I've received "lstat: No such file or directory" from Linux, Solaris 
and HP-UX, so this isn't a platform specific phenomena. I'd like 
Cfengine to stop sending me these unless there's something I should be 
doing about them.

A solaris 2.8 system had some  "lstat: Value too large for defined data 
type" errors. I'd like to understand what that is about.

And a Linux system had a few "lstat: Stale NFS file handle" errors. I'd 
like Cfengine to continue reporting this kind of problem.  -Tod
