You folks were so helpful with my last problem I thought I''d try again.
I''m attempting to use the services filetype to ensure that ntpd is
running on all my hosts. Unfortunately this does not seem to be
working on my Gentoo test system. I get the following output on the
client log:
puppetd[3436]: Starting configuration run
rc-scripts: status: stopped
puppetd[3436]: (//puppeteer/ntpd_client/service=ntpd) Failed to retrieve
current state: Service ntpd does not support enabling
puppetd[3436]: Finished configuration run in 7.31 seconds
My ntpd puppet configuration looks like this:
class ntpd_client {
#-----------------------------------------------------------------
# Description : All of our hosts should be running NTP so we''re all
# refering to the same time. Here we ensure that NTP
# is installed on all the machines and that they all
# have a sane configuration file.
# Author : Paul Ortman
# Date : October 2006
#-----------------------------------------------------------------
# First things first, make sure we have ntp installed by the
# OS/vendor packaging system.
package { "ntp" :
ensure => latest }
# This is the standard configuration file, make sure this
# requires ntp to be installed before we place it.
remotefile { "/etc/ntp.conf" :
source => "etc/ntp.conf",
mode => 660,
require => package["ntp"] }
# These next two files are clearly Gentoo specific, should
# probably hide them from others... FIXME
remotefile { "/etc/conf.d/ntp-client" :
source => "etc/conf.d/ntp-client",
mode => 644 }
remotefile { "/etc/conf.d/ntpd" :
source => "etc/conf.d/ntpd",
mode => 644 }
# Finally, we should definitely all be in the same timezone, and
# this is reflected by creating a symlink to the correct timezone
# file.
file { "/etc/localtime" :
ensure => "/usr/share/zoneinfo/US/Eastern" }
# We should also ensure that the ntpd service is running or else
# all of our work is for naught. Additionally this service
# should be reloaded whenever the configuration file changes.
# FIXME
service { ntpd :
enable => true,
ensure => running,
hasrestart => true,
hasstatus => true,
name => "ntpd",
path => "/etc/init.d" }
}
This seems to be correct from my beginner perspective, but what am I
doing wrong? Incidentally, I''m using Puppet 0.19.3 and Facter 1.3.5.

Incidentally, I''m using Puppet 0.19.3 and Facter 1.3.5.Init-style services do not support enabling. Red Hat supports it via chkconfig, Debian supports it via update-rc.d, but that''s it. Does Gentoo have a tool like either of these? If it has either of them, then you can specify the appropriate platform''s service provider. Otherwise, you''ll have to manually enable/disable the service using symlinks that you manage directly via Puppet. -- I am a kind of paranoiac in reverse.

Gentoo has a tool for this: the rc-update script.

By the way, Jose and Luke, you guys rock. I''ve been showing off what can be done and in general people are fairly impressed. I''m still learning where Puppet has its strengths and where attention and work is better spent lavished on individual machines -- note I''m in an academic environment with specialty servers instead of relatively uniform systems. I hope to find some time to share my "recipes" with others on the site.
