Hi, [First, a quick introduction... I''m one of the sysadmins at Koumbit.org, and we''re evaluating puppet for managing our modest server farm. I''ve already started writing recipes and manifests and intend to share those with this community. Part of my time worked on this will be directly paid by Koumbit.] So we''ve got a few half-finished puppet modules here:

So I''ve done some Mac OS X pkgs for the latest Facter and Puppet, as well as a combined mpkg for them both. Jeff McCune and I are doing a fair bit of testing on them this week in preparation for MacWorld, so I wasn''t going to upload them to the official site for another few days, but they''re looking pretty good. http://explanatorygap.net/puppet/Facter_1.3.8.pkg.zip

Not sure if this is another issue cropping up with 0.24.1 but I''m getting the following: info: Loading fact raid /etc/puppet/facts/location.rb:5: private method `split'' called for nil:NilClass (NoMethodError) from /usr/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/facter.rb:510:in `call'' from /usr/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/facter.rb:510:in `value'' from

Can I use puppet to ensure that a file includes certain text but not be required to maintain the entire file? For example, I would like /etc/modprobe.conf to contain the following lines but the file will also contain lines that are system dependent. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- # Disable IPV6 alias net-pf-10 off alias ipv6 off

If I use the ''file'' type to sync a file where the parent directory doesn''t exist the sync fails. According to the puppet docs "Puppet will autorequire any parent directories that are being managed". Am i missing something? Example: file { "/tmp/dhcp/dhcpd.include": source => "/tmp/dhcpd.include", } In

Hello... A while ago I posted a question about puppet on rhel3. I didn''t like the thought of replacing the default ruby version with a newer one. So I built up ruby 1.8.5 from rhel5 installed into /opt/. The name changed to ruby-opt (ruby-opt-1.8.5, ruby-libs-opt-1.8.5, etc) so that both versions can be installed together. spec file tweeks for ruby, factor, and puppet attached. (If
