Re: [etch-users] On a host, how to get list of files being managed by Etch

[Jason H. <jh...@ap...>]

Hmm, that's not come up before.  You could figure out which files etch managed at one point in time by inspecting /var/etch/orig or /var/etch/history (history would be a bit simpler).

However, getting a list of the files that the server is _currently_ telling the client to manage would be a bit more difficult.  In theory, if you sent a properly formed request to the server you could parse the XML response to get a list.  However, the way the client does this means that it may get the configuration in a couple of batches.  Anyway, you could parse the output from --debug.  If you'd like the client to provide a clean list via a command line option you can open a ticket, it shouldn't be too hard for me to add.
