[chef] Problem starting OSSEC agent using Chef ossec cookbook

[Clif Smith < >]

While I believe ossec::server worked like a charm for my server, I'm seeing 
the following for clients when using ossec::client:

2011/11/23 01:49:22 ossec-execd: INFO: Started (pid: 21856).

I verified the client can access the server as the server has the client's 
key is in /var/ossec/etc/client.keys.

Any ideas?
