Hey, Does anyone know of any VC++ to UNIX/LINUX makefile converter? If there is anything in the works or should I just bit the bullet and write my own script? Thanks, Joe

Hi all ! I searched newsgroup archive prior to ask this newbie question, did not find any answer; I am trying to install wine (20020122) on FreeBSD (4.5) I have 2 problems: 1. When I do installation from port, I am getting errors like "undefined reference to .." To memset, getuid, memcpy, strcat, strcpy etc .. 2. When is is finally built and installed, I can run wine itself but I can

I tried using $name in this manner: remotefile { "/etc/auto_direct.local": mode => 644, source => "solall/$name" } (The remotefile function is handy, BTW) When I use $name here, instead of specifying the actual path to the file (solall/etc/auto_direct.local), puppetd ends up making /etc/auto_direct.local an empty directory. Shouldn''t $name

So I was able to get some things up and running. However, I created classes/base.pp : class base { file { "/etc/ldap.conf": ensure => exists, owner => root, group => root, mode => 440, source => "puppet://192.168.1.222/dist/apps/base/ldap.conf", } file {

Hi all, I''ve been following the puppet project for a while now and I think it''s starting to become mature enough to be used in a pilot project at my corp. I have a few questions: 1. What is the current largest known number of Puppet managed hosts? 2. What are the average network demands on a single puppet master? 3. Has Oracle ever been managed by Puppet? 3a. Has Oracle ever

What is the right way to write definition so that defaults can be overriden? $puppetdir = "puppet://$server/files" define remotefile($source, $owner = "root", $group = "root", $mode = 0644, $backup = false, $recurse = false) { file { $name: mode => $mode, owner => $owner, group => $group, backup => $backup,

I have a bunch of CentOS machines. In the process of puppetizing one of them I''m getting this warning (more complete debug info at the end): warning: Found multiple default providers for service: init, base; using init info: /Service[gmond]: Provider init does not support features enableable; not managing attribute enable Given that all of my instances are running the same OS and should

Still very new to puppet, so go easy :-) Bit of a braindump I''m afraid, but I''d really appreciate any "Yep", "interesting", "No!!!" comments. I''ll start with an example - adding NTP support. This primarily consists of two configs: a) NTP clients - this is quite easy, it''s a templated file requiring the names of the NTP

Howdy, Found out about this project while looking for via ONLamp''s FreeBSD build system article. After finding cfengine a tad arcane, this project seems like a good fit for my setup. I''m still at the tinkering phase, but I envision this thing bootstrapping and maintaining several FreeBSD installs which have different CPU''s and packages. The Good News:

Has anyone used Puppet to manage Solaris Patches? If so could you pass on any tips. For those without Solaris experience, you can only describe the configuration of a Solaris system with the full combination of Installed Packages Installed Patches Applied Configuration

Since I had my type development epiphany a couple of days ago, I''ve decided to write down my understanding of developing simple types, at http://reductivelabs.com/trac/puppet/wiki/PracticalTypes. I''d appreciate comments from people who already know how to develop types as to correctness, and also comments from people who are new to type development about whether it''s a

Hi, I was talking to Luke today about managing manifests and related files, and he suggested that I post to the list.. What would be nice (and what I''ve use in in-house systems I''ve used previously) is to have a way to dynamically include manifest fragments at runtime. Lets assume that you''re setting up bugzilla using puppet. In the ''main'' manifest
