Resolution

For all the files which have encryption embedded in it (such as clienctConnect.conf, serverConnect.conf), we require it to be copied into their respective "local/conf" folder.  These folders are not created by default by Smarts.

For example, if the SM_SITEMOD has the value of  /opt/InCharge9/SAM/smarts/new-local" , then there must be a local directory created underneath it called local/conf.  Then the entire path would be "/opt/InCharge9/SAM/smarts/new-local/local/conf".

Now when you run "./sm_edit conf/clientConnect.conf" it will copy the "clientConnect.conf" from the "BASEDIR/conf " to "/opt/InCharge9/SAM/smarts/new-local/local/conf/" and open it for editing.

 sm_edit  also iterates only 3 levels of the directory for  SM_SITEMOD.  Thus having a directory structure like:
 
/opt/InCharge9/local-now/conf
 
This means you set the SITEMOD to:
 
SM_SITEMOD=/opt/InCharge9/new-local/
