Hi,
Why doesn''t puppet resource group tell me who belongs to the group?
Given the group such as:
mg_team:x:501:smruph, cosman, msmith, mhankey
With the command:
puppet resource group mg_team
only returns:
group { ''mg_team'':
gid => ''501'',
ensure => ''present''
}
I was expecting:
group { ''mg_team'':
gid => ''501'',
ensure => ''present''
members => [''smruph'', ''cosman'',
''msmith'', ''mhankey''],
}
Am I missing a parameter or something?
Corey
