Hi From the documentation I can''t see if I can define the following schedule: I want a certain command to be run once a day, monday-friday on a certain time of the day. Can I define that somehow...? -- Med venlig hilsen Juri Rischel Jensen Fab:IT ApS Vesterbrogade 50 DK-1620 København Tlf: 70 202 407 / Fax: 33 313 640 www.fab-it.dk / juri@fab-it.dk

Shorewall (IP Tables frontend - www.shorewall.net) has been kind of a headache in trying to move forward with puppet - we just haven''t found a clean way to manage the "rules" file. With that in mind - would it be possible to create a "shorewall_rule" type? The rules file is a simple file with space/tab delimited fields: (I can provide a detailed explanation of each

Hi, I''ve setup my systems to do reporting as explained in https:// reductivelabs.com/cgi-bin/puppet.cgi/wiki/ReportsAndReporting, with tagmail defined as one of the report types - but I do not recieve any mail at all. I''ve configured a tagmail.conf file like this: all: root@localhost But the documentation mentions three options, namely sendmail, reportfrom,

Hi I''m anxious to get puppet into production, and although I''d prefer installing puppet as a .deb package (as most of the servers in our shop runs Debian), I think I''ll try to get some of my not-so- important servers into my test setup by installing puppet with the .tgz files. Upon the first installation I realize that puppetd and puppetmasterd is copied to

Hi As I''m more familiar with cfengine and it''s way to split updates (in update.conf) from the actual grunt work (in cfagent.conf), I''m wondering how to best manage puppet and my manifests with puppet...? Should I define a puppet class that copy the puppet package (in .tgz format) and all the manifests to the client, and then have all my other classes depend on

Hi, When I try to specify a file I want copied in place, like: configfile { "/etc/init.d/puppet": source => "config/apps/puppet/puppet" } and has a require on that later on: exec { "/usr/sbin/update-rc.d puppet defaults": require => "/etc/init.d/puppet" } puppetd throws an error: err: Could not find type

Hi, I''ve just finished my first attempt at making anything in ruby. It ended up beeing a module to facter, which collects facts about the number of domU''s and the memory, id and vcpu facts on all of the domU''s. It''s meant to be run on the dom0, and uses the xm utility to get the information. The only thing I haven''t figured out, is how to

Hi all Shouldn''t it be possible to access definitions from a super class in a subclass? Eg.: class foo { define bar (bla) { ... } class oof inherits foo { bar { "rab": bla => "something", } } spews out an error: "Could not find definition bar at... -- Med venlig hilsen Juri Rischel Jensen Fab:IT ApS Vesterbrogade 50 DK-1620 København Tlf: 70 202

Hi all, I''d got the impression that puppet didn''t care about ordering - ie. the ordering of imports and includes related to calling them in the manifest. Lately I''ve had big trouble getting puppet to accept that I require some resource that I _have_ defined elsewhere in the manifest. To explain it, here is a simplified example: site.pp: -------- import

Hi, I need to set a variable to true or false if a certain file exists. I need to use it in a case statement like: case $is_installed { false: { exec... file... service... } true: { package... } } Is it possible...? I searched for the syntax, but I can''t find an appropriate example... -- Med venlig hilsen Juri Rischel Jensen Fab:IT ApS Vesterbrogade 50 DK-1620

Hi all I''ve stumbled upon something that I consider a bug: Node variables can''t have dashes in them: node blah { $allow-from = "127.0.0.1" } err: Could not parse; using old configuration: Could not match ''- from'' at /home/mercurial/repositories/manifests/nodes/nodes.pp:8 I''m using the variable to create a template-based config file.

Hi, I''d like to be able to create certain admin users on certain machines, and when I saw the new Resources feature, I thought I could use that. But I can''t get it to work. This is what it looks like: <snip> class admin { define adminuser { @user { $name: ensure => present, group => adm } file { "/home/$name": ensure =>

Hi all I''m fighting right now with the functionality of overriding variables. I''ve made a base node with some variables: node base { $country = "dk" $dv = "sarge" } And I''d like to override some of them in subnode definitions: node server01 inherits base { $dv = "etch" } Is this possible, or do I have to wrap the variables in a

Hi, I''m banging my head against the usage of variables i defines. Fx. I have this defined to easily create new systemusers: define systemuser($home = $home, $shell = "/bin/bash") { group { $name: ensure => present } user { $name: ensure => present, gid => $name, home => $home, shell =>

Hi I''m wondering if it''s possible to define some defaults for the package type. What I want is that package install/updates only happens at certain times of the day. I could do: class shorewall { package { "shorewall": ensure => latest, schedule => maintenance } } for every package I want to manage. But that means I have to type

Hi, I''m in the process of evaluating puppet and cfengine for a rollout on a mix of in-house servers and managed customer servers. I''ve always been a pro-cfengine man, and it''s already running on a small setup of 5 machines. But even though I have pretty clear idea of how I should proceed building the system, I''m intimidated by the vast amount of

Hi Can anyone tell me what''s wrong with this one. Sorry I''m new and I just want to print some message to the the puppet log on the client side. --------------------------------------------------- $testvar = "Hello world!" class mytest { exec { "/bin/echo $testvar" } } I keep getting: err: Could not parse; using old configuration: Syntax error at

Hi, I just want to know what the state of the Debian packages is? I''ve downloaded (and is currently testing with) the packages from http:// reductivelabs.com/downloads/packages/Debian/ They seem to miss some important stuff such as init scripts and puppetrun, and they hasn''t all the dependencies defined (eg. ruby). From the info part of the packages I can''t see

Hi all Guess it''s time for me to dig a bit deeper into the ruby language. Can you recommend some good starting books on ruby programming? Thanks. -- Med venlig hilsen Juri Rischel Jensen Fab:IT ApS Vesterbrogade 50 DK-1620 København Tlf: 70 202 407 / Fax: 33 313 640 www.fab-it.dk / juri@fab-it.dk
