Unfortunately, this is another "I don''t yet know ruby" question, but I''m hoping that someone can help me out. I''ve just tried to write some mount options via puppet and I noticed that, while fstab is written, the managed mounts are not remounted to effect the stated changes. For instance: Original - /home, options: rw Puppet - /home, options: rw,acl

I configured my rsync daemon to be restarted when the rsyncd configuration file changes. When the rsync daemon gets restarted by puppet, it listens on the same port puppetd does, so running puppetd again results in an error.

I am still in the familiarisation and testing phase of my puppet implementation, and have a question for the enlightened: Is there an upper limit to the numeric user ID that puppet recognises? Here is what I have so far: System is RHEL4, puppet 0.23.1 All users are defined in LDAP rather than in /etc/password, and their numeric user IDs are sourced from LDAP as well. These numeric IDs

Hi, I''ve just changed my debian preseed configuration to install the debian unstable package of puppet v0.22.1. As part of the preseed I have a late command that clobbers the /etc/init.d/puppet file into using the puppet standalone program and not the puppetd (as this is what I''m using). Since the upgrade to 0.22.1 every boot hangs during the initd. Going into standalone mode

Why doesn''t the yum provider support version, I tried added ensure -> ''ver'' and it barfs up (on clients) with: <snip> err: //stan.gbuild.org/any-host/java/Package[j2sdk]/ensure: change from 1.4.2_12-fcs to 1.4.2_13-fcs failed: Package provider yum does not support specifying versions at /etc/puppet/manifests/classes/ java.pp:13 </snip>

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.
