control:

 actionsequence = ( files )

files:
 
 /tmp       filter=testfilteralias action=alert r=inf
 /cfengine  filter=testfilteralias action=fixall r=inf mode=644

filters:

  { testfilteralias

  Owner:     "mark"
  Group:     "cfengine"
  Type:      "dir|link"

  Result:    "Type|(Owner.Group)"  # Both owner AND group required correct
  }
