HI all, I would like to use puppet to restart something when a conf file has changed, but it is not a service per se. it is IPF on HP-UX, so it does have an init.d script - ipfboot - but it does not run anything so i was wondering how do I tell HP-UX to force the script to stop then start (there is no restart) if the conf file changes? thanks ~j~ --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
