Hi *! Here is a hack to emulate cfengines editfiles/Group behaviour. {{{ $splice_dir = "/var/local/puppet/splice" file { $splice_dir: ensure => directory, tag => "file_splice", } # Replace a section marked by # comment_char {BEGIN,END} pattern # with the given content # if checksum is set to "none", no resource is defined for the edited file define file_splice ($file, $pattern = "PUPPET SECTION", $comment_char = "#", $content = "", $input_file = "", $checksum = md5) {...

I''m not sure if this has been posted previously, but I couldn''t find any information on it. I added a cron job via the cron type and it installed properly. Next, I removed the cron type from the manifest. The result was that, while the entry was no longer in the yaml file, the cron entry was not removed! Is this a bug, or the way that it is supposed to function? Thank you,
