<p dir="auto">Shouldn't this be <code>/usr/local/etc/kea</code>?</p>
<p dir="auto">Unless I change it, trying to enable the control agent with e.g. <code>/usr/local/sbin/kea-ctrl-agent -c /usr/local/etc/kea/kea-ctrl-agent.conf</code> fails.</p>
<p dir="auto"><strong>edit</strong>: seems the control agent is <a href="https://kea.readthedocs.io/en/stable/arm/ctrl-channel.html#migration-from-the-obsolete-removed-control-agent" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow ugc">deprecated</a> in Kea 3.x, so maybe this is a moot point...</p>
