client-local OS/CLASS

[Xavier Cherif]

Hi,

i'm testing hobbit-4.20 on a some machines, and i've some trouble with the
automatic update.

client-local.cfg, can use the os of the box to check & download newer
version of the client. As far as i known this can be done
with a set of os type (like redhat/frebsd/sunos/...) or by the name of the
machine. unfortunatly we have some sparc/x86 linux/solaris box.
so having sunos or linux without processor type lead the client to dowload
the bad version.

For known i've found two solutions which are paintfull.

1. changing the runclient.sh to override class and/or os so the
client-local.cfg would  have some minimum changes at each upgrade.

2. make one entry by server in client-local.cfg and change every entries.

did some known how to report processor type with the os string ?


Regards
