All
I am doing some testing and have a quick question. Do class and node
names have to be unique? I define a node:
node test {
include test
}
and a class called test.
When I run the test node and connect I don''t get an error but no
configuration is applied to the node. Is this normal behaviour or a
bug? If it''s normal behaviour should Puppet tell you about the
duplication?
Regards
James Turnbull

If you''re running 0.23.1, you should get an error thrown if you do that. I tried to make it so they didn''t have to be unique, but I couldn''t find a decent way to do so. -- It is better to sleep on things beforehand than lie awake about them afterward. -- Baltasar Gracian --------------------------------------------------------------------- Luke Kanies | http://reductivelabs.com | http://madstop.com
