Hello... What is the last version of puppet that will work with ruby version 1.6.8? I have a few RHEL 3 machines I would like to run puppetd (only the client, not puppetmaster). They will be updated to RHEL 5 fairly soon, so I don''t want to spend a lot of time trying to get a more recent version of ruby on them. thanks /me buys Luke a beer for all his help :) I now have

Hello... Is this a bug or by design? I''m using exported resources to generate /etc/ssh/ssh_known_hosts. I changed the example from the docs to this: @@sshkey { "$fqdn,$hostname,$ipaddress": type => rsa, key => $sshrsakey, } so that I would get one line per host in the ssh_know_hosts file. What happened was that on each run several (all?)

Hello... I noticed from the list that puppet is not ready for ruby 1.9.2 yet. I''m working at a ruby shop so I gave a shot at building ruby 1.9.2 rpms with supporting gems for RHEL/CentOS. I have ruby-1.9.2 rpms that replace the vendor rpms and ruby192 rpms that install in parallel with the vendor rpms. Is anyone interested in using these rpms to get puppet working with 1.9.2 and/or

Hello... There is a ticket for these errors: ... (err): Could not describe $path/$file: end of file reached Is there a fix for this in the upcoming release, or is mongrel still the only solution? -- Christopher McCrory "The guy that keeps the servers running" To the optimist, the glass is half full.

Hello... I am looking to replace my current config file management solution with puppet. I looked at both cfengine and puppet and neither seem to have a "diff" option. as in: configfile { "/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf": source => "/httpd/httpd.conf" } will install a httpd.conf file. What I would like is to be able to see a unified diff of the

Hello... I need some help with tags. as an example: # pseudo code class ssh { file { "/etc/ssh/ssh_config": # normal stuff tag("dangerous") } file { "/etc/ssh/sshd_config": # normal stuff tag("dangerous") } file { "/etc/ssh/ssh_known_hosts": # normal stuff tag("safe") } } on client: puppetd --tags

Hello... I wanted to be able to startup an EC2 instance with one command and have a fully functioning server without having to shell into each new instance and configure the bits to allow puppet to finish the configuration. Here are some notes I came up with for bootstrapping an ec2 instance with puppet using Ubuntu 10.04. I left out a lot of things about creating and running custom AIM

Hello... I noticed that puppet is not in the FreeBSD ports collection. Is anyone working on adding it? Or has someone made a ports Makefile for local use they can share? -- Christopher McCrory "The guy that keeps the servers running" chrismcc@pricegrabber.com http://www.pricegrabber.com Let''s face it, there''s no Hollow Earth, no robots, and no ''mute

Hello... After a break, I am back to my integrating puppet project. While testing I ran into a bug in puppetmaster.log. (maybe. it is possible I did this myself with a borked config ) I seems that puppetmaster is re-logging past data. I have noop = true and set runinterval = 60 to show the bug. I manually added the "manual break" lines in between runs. Wed Jan 24 09:27:29

Hello... I started testing puppet 0.25.x on my puppetmaster (RH 5.4 x64_64). I first tried 0.25.1 from EPEL testing, then 0.25.2rc1. I am using apache/mongrel with 10 ports. My puppetmaster configs are in /srv/puppet not /var/puppet. When starting puppetmaster I get the following errors: Port: 18140Could not prepare for execution: Got 1 failure(s) while initializing: change from directory

Upon finding a different image conversion program, I have eliminated the Premature EOF problem that I had(apologies if I post this before the moderator approves my first post...you can ignore it if/when it shows up). Now, I am seeing the script complete with no error. I tested my syslinux.dpy file with the syslogo.lss file from the samples, and it's fine. The lss file I created, however,

At long last, 0.24.0 has been released.

Hi folks, When I enabled stored configs on my puppet master, it began keeping lots of open connections to the MySQL server (as far as I understand it opened one connection for each client run and never closed them). I set up the server to close idle connections after 5 minutes. Now the database server does close the connections but the puppet master keeps them in CLOSE_WAIT state and eventually

Hello... In regards to http://www.freebsd.org/security/ , from what I understand the FreeBSD 4.x branch is generally winding down in favor of the 5.x/6.x branches. It would be nice to know ahead of time if 4.11 will also be an extended release, or if that would fall to 4.12. For those of running 4.8 (expiring about the same time as 4.11 is released) we would be in a better position to know

I cannot join the Windows servers to the domain. I get an error

My domain name is SAMBA-DOMAIN, I can't join it from a win 2003 machine.

Thank you Note: to manage joining my samba domain from a xp machine, I had to change a registry key. --- "Mccrory, Kevin
