I''ve been using puppet for a while but I just recently decided to start using it to manage crontabs. It works great but puppet is reporting (and being very noisy about it) every time it does a run even when there is nothing in the actual crontab to change. I think this is happening because I''m setting defaults for the Cron type, which I should be able to do. Right? eg: Cron {

Do you need cron installed for the files in /etc/cron.daily/ to execute? Did a Centos 6.x minimal openvz install and noticed cron is not installed by default and after installing mlocate cant help but wander if it will be updated without it.

Hi all I have a '/etc/cron.daily/push-to-backup' script which the content is: #!/bin/bash /usr/bin/rsync [... long options line ...] echo "finished pushing to the backup" Launched manually, it's OK. Waiting for cron to execute it, In the "/var/log/cron", I see the starting time and the finish time, and I see it take about 10 minutes to make the job.

Hi On 6/10/09, James Bensley <jwbensley at gmail.com> Hi all, I don't know what exactly is causing this, but I can't find cron / crontab on my CentOS 5.3 machine. Yes, I know, it's an obvious one, install it. But, it is, according to rpm: [root at zaxen01 ~]# rpm -aq | grep cron anacron-2.3-45.el5.centos crontabs-1.10-8 I have tried yum update crontabs, and then it said there

Hi, Recently there have been advisories and patches for SuSE and RedHat (and probably a few others) regarding a vulnerability in Vixie Cron. The details say that there's insufficient checking of the return value of setuid, which can lead to priviledge escalation and lets users run cron jobs with root priviledges. As far as I know, FreBSD also uses Vixie Cron (at least the cron(8) manpage

Hi all. Can anyone help me with scheduling tasks? I'm running Centos4.2 (updated via yum starting from 4.0). I know I have vixie-cron and anacron packages installed (came like that, from first install, I guess). I read the crontab syntax man page (man 5 crontab) and I made an entry as a normal user (using crontab -e) that looks like the following: 30 0 9 1 1 /bin/ls -F /home/jose >

I'm having a problem with the new vixie-cron rpm for CentOS 4.1 when updating via yum. It complains with the message: Error: Missing Dependency: pam >= 0.77-66.8 is needed by package vixie-cron I got this error from calling 'yum update' on a clean install from the 4.1 isos. This version of pam is available in the 4.2 beta repository, but not the 4.1 repository. Did something

I was attempting to set up some cron jobs via puppet. I was trying to get cron to mail the output of the cron jobs to a specific user, so I was attempting to set MAILTO=user@example.com, via the environment => specifier. Puppet did as it was told. Unfortunately, I guess that Solaris 10 does not support setting of environment variables in crontab files (directly), so when puppet attempted to

Hi all, CentOs has choosen anacron as default cron daemon. I did not look further about the reasons, I think there are some good reasons. I want to create a minute based set of scripts. No much precision required, once a minute more or less 20 sec is OK. Using anacron, how do you recommend to do it? Is anacron the right tool? Otherwise what's the right tool? -- RMA.

Hello, I'm trying to send Dovecot logs to a Graylog server. To do this, I'd like to pass logs to rsyslog and rsyslog pass logs to remote Graylog server. I set in dovecot.conf : syslog_facility = local5.info I set in rsyslog.conf : local5.info @192.168.xxx.xxx:5555 Restarted services and it doesn't work. I use nmap to test if port 5555 is opened and this port is open. What

I've spent more than a day trying to write a script to backup my remote server to a local machine using ssh. The script works perfectly when I execute it directly (and I've gotten a number of variations to work okay), but I can't get cron to successfully execute it. There is no result output, so it seems cron is hanging on something, but I don't know what. I'm running it as

Hi, My apologies if this isn't the right place to ask this question. We have trying to setup auditing in Samba but can't seem to get it to work. The audit log file is empty and we see some entries about file/folders in the /var/log/samba/%m but not the actual audit bits. Can someone please assist or point in the correct direction? syslog = 0 log file = /var/log/samba/%m Log level = 0

How do I make sure a module is loaded before puppet requests a specific resource type. For example, node ''test'' { include cron cron { "my-test-cron": } } -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
