You can add new entries using the ''host'' type:
http://docs.puppetlabs.com/references/stable/type.html#host
For example:
host { "myhostname":
ip => "1.1.1.1",
}
By itself, it won''t remove existing entries (but there is a way to do
this as well using purging).
If you haven''t read it already, there is a language guide which
explains using resources in more detail:
http://docs.puppetlabs.com/guides/language_guide.html#resources

Thanks Rob but what if I simple decide to remove the existing smb.conf file and push the new smb.conf from the server, I know I can use the source to tell which file to install and its location but how would I remove the smb.conf from the client.

The original should get stored away in the client’s file bucket. If you want to remove a file only, you can use “ensure => absent”. I’m not sure what you’re asking, but hopefully the answer’s in there somewhere. -- Rob McBroom <http://www.skurfer.com/> -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.

Rob I am writing a module for installing Haproxy on client machine and
I want modified haproxy.cfg and modified /etc/init.d/haproxy to be
installed on the client. Here is my code but teh files are not getting
to the client machine:
class haproxy::install {
package { "haproxy":
ensure =>present,
}
}
class haproxy::init {
file { "/etc/init.d/haproxy":
ensure => present,
owner => ''root'',
group => ''root'',
mode => 0600,
source => "puppet:///modules/haproxy/haroxy",
require => Class["haproxy::install"],
}
}
class haproxy::cfg {
file { "/etc/haproxy/haproxy.cfg":
ensure => present,
owner => ''root'',
group => ''root'',
mode => 0600,
source => "puppet:///modules/haproxy/haroxy.cfg",
require => Class["haproxy::install"],
}
}
class haproxy {
include haproxy::install, haproxy::init, haproxy::cfg
}
Client shows the following error:
err: //haproxy::init/File[/etc/init.d/haproxy]: Failed to retrieve
current state of resource: Could not retrieve information from
source(s) puppet:///modules/haproxy/haroxy at /etc/puppet/modules/
haproxy/manifests/init.pp:17
err: //haproxy::cfg/File[/etc/haproxy/haproxy.cfg]: Failed to retrieve
current state of resource: Could not retrieve information from
source(s) puppet:///modules/haproxy/haroxy.cfg at /etc/puppet/modules/
haproxy/manifests/init.pp:29
