Hi Chris,

Did you set `environment' in `body agent control'
(`controls/cf_agent.cf')?


,----
| body agent control
| {
|   with_env::
|     environment => { "XPG_SUS_ENV=ON" };
| }      
| bundle agent __main__
| {
|   reports:
|       "ENV XPG_SUS_ENV='$(with)'" with => getenv( "XPG_SUS_ENV", inf );
| }
`----
Listing 1: Example Policy

,----
| # cf-agent --no-lock --log-level info --file /tmp/cf-agent-environment-vars.cf
| R: ENV XPG_SUS_ENV=''
`----


,----
| # cf-agent --define with_env --no-lock --log-level info --file /tmp/cf-agent-environment-vars.cf
| R: ENV XPG_SUS_ENV='ON'
`----
