Variable scope: Class inheritance vs Include statement.
Hello.
I''m a long time cfengine user, some might say sufferer, and I have
finally managed to get around to experimenting with Puppet. So far I''m
very impressed.
I am trying to get puppet to configure the openntpd config file, from
an ERB template, based on the node definition in the site config.
What I''m trying to understand is why when I define a variable in a

Aliases not working in a subclass ?
Hi folks,
I''m overriding some resource attribute in a subclass. It seems that
specifying a resource by its alias doesn''t work in a subclass.
Looks like a bug, no ?

alias => test-module,
content => "module::base",

error "Stack level too deep" on ''exec[ "perl Makefile.PL" ] ?
Hi,
I''m testing puppet from the subversion trunk. I have a rather
hacked-together system to install a CRM into one of my nodes, which
worked (more or less) with version 0.19.3. When I tried to do a puppet
run on a completely clean node it seemed to stall on the ''compilation''
part (I do an exec of ''perl Makefile.PL'' in the appropriate dir). When

New Feature: Graphing
Hi all,
One of the major new features in the upcoming release is that Puppet
now uses a graph library internally to handle resource
relationships. The big benefit to all of you is that you can use
this library to turn these graphs into images.
The trick, right now, is adding --graph when you run puppetd. This
creates .dot files, which can then be interpreted by the

"server" config option (and cmd-line option) don''t do anything for puppetd?
Hi guys,
Unlike what it says in the documentation and the --help output, I
can''t seem to get puppetd to use the --server setting. The only way I
can get puppetd to work is to include a ''puppet'' alias to the ip of
the machine I''m running puppetmasterd on in my hosts file.
The strange thing though, is that the logs of my puppetmaster show
that it *is* getting

Installing CPAN packages?
Hi guys,
Has anyone yet tackled installing CPAN packages through puppet? I need
some that aren''t available as separate debs, so if anyone has an idea
how best to do this, I''d like feedback.
Thanks,

How to conditionally run defines?
Hi all,
Is there a (simple) way to add conditionals to a call to a define?
What I want is to run a define only if a file (that gets created
somewhere along the run of the define) does not exist. In this way I
can skip a whole lot of setup work in the define if I know it has
already run once before. I would think adding a unless clause would be
a elegant solution (and the other conditionals like

Modules, namespaces and variables
Hi there,
After quite a long time out of puppet business I''m back, and the first thing
I''m doing is rephrasing my puppet manifests using modules. I started with
the NTP module (a classic, I guess). I have (more or less) the following:
In modules/ntp/manifests/init.pp:
$ntp_localtime = "/usr/share/zoneinfo/Europe/Madrid"
class ntp {

Example module for central git repository via http (sort of like a subversion repo) [a bit RFC]
Hi all,
I''ve been looking for a good example for how one would build a module,
but I couldn''t really find something that I liked, so I went ahead and
tried to do it myself.
The result is this: a git module (see attachment).
Please have a look and comment on it, before I add it to the wiki. I
especially want comments on the setup of the module itself, not so
much on the git

munin module: manage clients and server''s config
Hello all.
Probably this question has already been posed in the context of another
software, but I am unable to find it.
I would like to implement a module which should manage munin-clients as
well as the munin-server.
Here is what I am thinking about implementing:
- There are two classes: munin::client and munin::server
- munin::clients'' configuration will be managed automatically.

Thank you puppet!!
I''ve been hacking at puppet for the past week or two, and came up with
some great stuff, but I''m wondering if there''s a way to tie it all
together
To create a virtual machine for our company''s QA environment, I''m
currently doing 3 things:

rrdgraphs?
Anyone using the rrdgraph report on the puppetmaster on Debian stable? I''m
trying to get this working and not getting far. I even took rrdtool and
librrd0-dev from backports and I still get the same problem. It seems that
the rrdfiles are being somewhat created, but nevertheless, the puppetmaster
isn''t happy and keeps spewing:

You folks were so helpful with my last problem I thought I''d try again.
I''m attempting to use the services filetype to ensure that ntpd is

Puppet uses too much RAM memory
Hello,
I have two Vmware images, with 256MB of RAM memory each one, running
puppetmasterd for the server and puppetd for the client. It''s normal
that my puppetmasterd and puppetd occupies almost 10% of RAM memory
each one? They aren''t doing anything especial, just listening on the
ports.
Thanks.

Installing a file only if a package is available
Hi,
is there a way to make sure a file is installed only if a certain
package is installed on the client?
e.g. I want to distribute the client key for NX via puppet. However I
only want to install these files if package ''freenx'' is installed on the
client.
I tried adding ''require => package["freenx"]'' but then puppetd complains

Can I do this in a template..?
Hi all,
I have a situation where I want to use the same template to create
two different files in two different classes. I''ve tried to lookup
some information on what is possible with templates, how advanced you
can get, but haven''t found much. I guess it''s one of the areas where
I should contribute to the docs - once I figured out what I can do,
that is...
