So I was looking at the type reference, and noticed that for a lot of the types, no namevar was listed. When I checked the types in the code, for each of those omissions, the namevar was simply "name". Now, it might be self evident that this is the case, but a little documentation couldn''t hurt, If not in each type, at least in the section where it describes what namevars

Hi, I needed a function to check if a file is existing on the Debian box I am configuring. So I used this one module Puppet::Parser::Functions newfunction(:file_exists, :type => :rvalue) do |args| if File.exists?(args[0]) return 1 else return 0 end end end It work greats for some service where apache2 doesn''t work for me.

Just started a rollout of centos 6.x across our Puppet deployment (100-odd servers). what fact would people suggest I use to distinguish 5.x from 6.x (quite a lot of subsystems are different between major releases)? lsb* facts don''t seem to be present on centos 6 - is this an EPEL bug, or have they just been removed in Facter?

Dear community, I use puppet to deploy iptables on every server. This is working fine. In the manifest I defined an iptables service which leads to my init script. The thing is each time I run puppet I got : notice: /Stage[main]/Iptables/Service[netfilter]/ensure: ensure changed ''stopped'' to ''running'' I would like to add a status command to my startup script

I currently have a child class of a parent one. The parent defines some variable that I need to use in the child class. I am also using gepetto. Gepetto is complaining about the syntax of the child variable. It is saying that "$parentVar" should be "$::parentVar" however, when changing to what Gepetto wants to use this breaks my classes. Does anyone know the proper

Hi, It''s easy enough to modify, say, the "exclude" variable in /etc/yum.conf with something like: augeas { yum_exclude_kernel: context => ''/files/etc/yum.conf/main'', changes => ''set exclude kernel*'' } However, I''d like a more flexible system where I can "build" the list of excludes from

I have need of ensuring that certain local user accounts get created on all machines, reguardless of what the system "/bin/password" and "useradd" type mechanisms are set to. It would be really nice to find a pre-written

Hi all, I''m interested pushing my user list out of my users manifest and into Hiera. Unfortunately I haven''t been able to get it to work the way I thought it would.

Hi all, I am trying to understand how does hiera puppet backend work, so I created the following example: hiera.yaml has only: --- :backends: - puppet --- And the node: node ''testnode'' { $variable = ''kk'' $thing = hiera ("variable") notify { "note: $thing": } } I don''t want to use the yaml backend for now, just want to

I am running Puppet 2.7.x (x varies from 14 to 20 on different machines). I am trying to use Puppet to deploy a new Zabbix agent configuration file. On all machines where the file wasn''t a symlink, the deployment worked. However, every machine where it is a link, Puppet refuses to replace teh link with a regular file or do anything with it. I''ve read the type reference, and
