Say I have 50 user accounts that must exist on 3 hosts, each with different passwords (3 hosts, 50 users, 150 passwords). Is it possible to do this without defining each user 3 times?

Re: [Puppet Users] Users with different passwords on each host
Maybe something like this?
----------------------------------------
class users {
user { ''cwood'':
password => $fqdn ? {
''host1'' => ''password1'',
''host2'' => ''password2'',
},
}
}
include users
----------------------------------------
If you use a scripted generator to pop out the manifest from predefined lists of
users and hosts that will be easier on you.
But now I''m really, really curious about why you''re
configuring the opposite of centralized authentication. What criteria are you
attempting to fit into?

[Puppet Users] Re: Users with different passwords on each host
Ahh! That might work for me, thanks! You''re wondering why I don''t use LDAP or other centralized authentication? I''m not familiar with it, I don''t know whether it has the ability to do what I want, and I''d have to convice my CTO, who doesn''t experience my issues directly that it''s better than me having to maintain a bunch of code. :\ I''ll let you know if it works, thanks again.
