Squid/ntlm_auth issues with two user accounts (all other accounts on the domain work).
...ot work fail regardless of the PC used. Other accounts are successful on the PCs "owned" by the users whose accounts do not work. Can anyone shed any further light on this for me?

Potential new puppet user: two questions
Hello, I am examining whether puppet meets our needs. I can''t find the answer to two questions I am looking to answer, hopefully someone can help. 1. Can puppet be used to manage different classes of the same computers, e.g. do something on the apache test farm, if it works then do it on the apache live farm; and is this done cleanly? 2. How are package updates (e.g. yum update/yum

mcollective scalability
I''ve been thinking a lot about running mcollective on my production servers recently, especially about its nice integration with puppet (using facts and so on). However I''ve got some concern about its scalability - how publish/subscribe middleware scales in terms of speed and flooding the network. I run about 2000 servers. Has anyone got any experience running mcollective on

1.0.15 -> 2.x upgrade for mass hosting environment
Hi all, We're looking at upgrading our current mail platform from 1.0.15 to 2.x to take advantage of the new director functionality. Our main concern is the number of mailboxes involved (circa. 300K) and the rebuilding of the index files, especially as it seems that once you've upgraded, rolling back requires the deletion and recreation of all indices. Has anyone worked on an

POP3 vs. IMAP Load/Memory usage in Dovecot 1.0.15
Hi all, We've just provisioned a new cluster of dovecot nodes running Centos and Dovecot 1.0.15 (we needed to match the original configuration, we're upgrading to 1.2 next week!). The nodes are currently equally allocated (50/50 split) to IMAP and POP3, with the intention to move them into a single cluster hosting both services in the next month. All the servers are of identical

Simple issue with templates.
Hi all, My brain is now officially dead! I have a series of modules that have a tree layout as documented in the "best practice" guide. One of the directories I have is "templates" and in this directory I have placed a template.erb file, however no matter how I refer to the path in my init.pp, I cannot get it to include. I''ve even set "templatedir" to

YUMREPO { productname => PowerEdge 2650}

Accessing the puppet configuration settings from an external script?
Hi all, I''m working on a ext-node script that will use oauth to authenticate against the node database and I''m wondering if it is possible to read the puppet.conf file easily in this script so I can place the oauth key/secret into this file (and basically avoid maintaining my own config file!) Is there an easy way of doing this, or do I need to read in a parse the file myself?
