Puppet users - Jun 2009 - Is there a way to write to a file using puppet

Hey Guys,

I am sorry if this sounds silly but I am new to puppet. I am trying to
append a particular line to the apt.conf file on all the clients that are
running puppetd. Is there any way to do this using puppet. Any help would be
appreciated!

Thank you!

Or take a look at Augeas, provided there is already a lens for
apt.conf or you''re comfortable writing one, would likely be a cleaner
way of handling this.

Depending on the format of the file (I don''t know what that one is),
you may
not need a custom lens.  I modified /etc/sysconfig/sysstat (part of the
sysstat package on rhel).  These files are generally simple key=value files,
and the basic lens is sufficient for that.
