Hi I am trying to push populate /home & subdirectories from the puppet server to all the Linux clients. I managed this with cfengine using rsync. But I am not sure how do I achieve this in puppet, do we have any inbuilt function for this. Also, is there a function for userdel like for useradd (user) groupadd(group). Any suggestion is appreciated. -- Deepak

I won''t claim it''s all done to the best style, but it does appear to work. Can someone take a look at http://blogs.cae.tntech.edu/mwr/2007/08/02/the-new-file-server-puppet-and-modules/ and give suggestions? It''s a bit more extensive than the example on the wiki at ModuleOrganization, and might make a decent jumping-off point for others. -- Mike Renfro / R&D Engineer, Center for Manufacturing Research, 931 372-3...

I have to build quite a lot of servers for a prject and i need to instal them. Of course puppet take care of the configuration but i wondered if some of you use things like FAI . It seems that i could use puppet to script FAI to install machines. What do you

I am new to Puppet and very eager to apply it to a project. But I am somewhat stymied by the learning curve. So far I''ve found many very simple examples of how to modify a file or add a user and a very complex example http://reductivelabs.com/trac/puppet/wiki/CompleteConfiguration . I have not been able to find any other examples of a total configuration tree (ie /etc/puppet/*)

I''ve got about 40 linux/aix machines that I''d like assimilate into config management with puppet. I''ve been reading lots of docs, recipes and best practices. I''m wondering if there''s a guide somewhere that lays out the most efficient way to spread the use of puppet across a quantity of installed machines. I''d like to do first things first,

Hi, I''m absolutely new to centralized server management, sorry sorry in advance for any stupid remarks. Looking on the puppet documentation, I mainly find a lot of info about how to manage the config files, but nothing about centralized control.
