I have tried to read through all the documentation and whatnot, but I don't see anything about this topic. I have bro starting fine now, however, it always quits because it says no work dir found on all of the workers. Do I need to specify a directory for it to use? How do I do that?
Sam
did you run 'install' in broctl?
I managed to fix the no work dir found problem (silly permissions issues and ssh-keys). I run broctl check and everything says ok. I then try to start and everything starts ok, but then all of the workers immediately fail due to an error at line 67 of /usr/local/bro/share/bro/drop.bro

It doesn't make sense to me because it seems like it's saying it has DNS issues, but DNS works in every other aspect (ping, browser).

Yes, this does look like DNS issues.

Hmm, that's weird. I presume you did verify this on the actual
worker systems, not just on the manager, correct?

Yes I ran into the same problem on 4 workers as well as the server, and another 3 machine cluster elsewhere on the network. Could it be something in the configurations?
