Puppet users - Aug 2012 - Don't touch non-default config files

Hi folks,

I''d like to say puppet. 
If the standart config file, delivered by dpkg, is changed and has also not 
the same md5sum as
the file I want to deliver with puppet. Do nothing :)

OK guys.. that was not my idea! I say everything has to be changed in 
puppet and not by hand.

Or Maybe there is a way to use facter for it?!

Thank''s for your recommendations!

Jonesi

Just for the sake of curiosity: why don''t you just prepare your puppet 
conf to be like the default conf for that package? It''s easier and
saner
IMO.

If it''s default it should use the puppet version... but if someone
changed
it puppet should do nothing.
That''s the little issue :/

That''s the wrong approach. if you are managing a resource through 
puppet, then ALL changes go through puppet, otherwise it''s a mess, and 
then puppet it''s not what you want. You probably want some system
deploy
application like FAI and then manual resource management.

It sounds like you want Puppet to manage the file content under some 
circumstances, but not under others.  If that''s so, then how do you
expect
Puppet to discern which case applies?  How would you determine that 
manually?
