Hello, Is it possible to group many nodes together? Suppose I have a large number of machines that I all want to have the same config - rather than specify them as individual nodes each inheriting the same config, I''d like to say that a group inherits a config, and define the group elsewhere. Does this sort of construction already exist? Could it be cobbled together from what we

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi Russ, Digant, *! Several times on the IRC channel I noticed people having problems getting to grips with the interaction of scopes when using template nodes[1]. Typically this looks thus: | node genericwebserver { stuff } | | node ''web01.example.com'' inherits genericwebserver { | $influence_genericwebserver = "other_stuff" | } Due to ''web01.example.com''s scope being "below" or "within" the scope of genericwebserver, the defined variable never reaches the included resources...

Excuse dopey question. I'm not exactly clear about certificates. Apache2 default install has this snake oil certificate Can make a new one for apache Can make one for dovecot Can make one for ssl Is there supposed to be the one (self signed ) certificate pair in one place for the machine that each process hands out ? Can they be moved to another machine ? mick -- Key ID C7D6E24C

...pache, dovecot, postfix are all services/programs. SSL is a protocol/way of encryption. Self-signed means there is no Certificate Authority backing the legitimacy. Getting a Let's Encrypt certificate (I recommend certbot) will get you a legitime certificate, but only for the hostname (e.g. web01.yourdomain.com) you provide it. This must be traceable to your machine through DNS, so moving it to another machine would only work if that machine would completely replace the old machine (domain name) and the DNS is changed to point to your new IP address (or the old machine gets taken out of...
