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

Greetings, Our environment consists of about 600 Redhat Enterprise Linux 3, 4, 5, and soon 6 servers. We use cfengine 2 currently, but plan on migrating to puppet. Right now, we have our root-owned cfengine client running every 15 minutes from cron contacting a single cfservd server. Additionally, our employees start their own cfengine and puppet instances on on some servers running under

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

A little patch to add Wx::GenericDirCtrl. A non-native control (on OS X at least) but maybe useful to someone. I have tested it but think it should just be added to controls.rb sample - will do later when i have fixed some other probs with that. Also, I''ve started putting class-specifc style constants in the relevant .i file, as discussed previosuly - will submit a patch doing this

Hello there. Just to let you know i have just put in production mode puppet on 41 freeBSD 4.7 virtual servers (yes not real servers but "jailed ones"). I had some little problems with facter at first but i have manualy upgraded the servers that where affected by the little "facter does not read his facts" problem i had. I should have missed something in my deploiement.

Full_Name: Ben Goodrich Version: 2.6.1 OS: Debian Submission from: (NULL) (128.103.222.166) bzr is another version control system and adds a .bzr folder to the top-level directory of a package, similar to .svn and .git for subversion and git respectively. However, while R CMD build removes directories called .svn, .git, and some others, it does not remove .bzr . As a result, the .bzr folder is

I change my ubuntu to mac os, and rsync my puppet file to the puppet server. I run puppetd -tv in the client, and then this error happens puppetd -tv err: Could not retrieve catalog: Could not parse for environment production: Could not find file /etc/puppet/manifests/site.pp warning: Not using cache on failed catalog -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups

After v1.0 is released, I can finally get back to sane version numbers. But any comments on which one is better: a) Postfix-style: "1.1.UNSTABLE.YYYYMMDD" -> 1.1.0 (stable) b) Odd-even numbering: 1.1.x (unstable) -> 1.2.0 (stable) With a) style the releases could be done by simply copying a nightly snapshot to releases/ directory and announcing the changes since the last

I need to know how to do the following in puppet. Say I have three classes, (c1,c2,c3) that are not related. These classes could be considered "attributes" that may or may not apply to an individual host on my network. I need to know how to write a manifest, or series of manifests to allow me trigger a command (call it ''foo'') if all three classes are defined. I also

Time ago when the svn server was crawling due to massive hammering from people mirroring the repo, someone said that after the 2.6 release we could discuss creating official mirrors for those who work with svn clients based on distributed VCSs such as git and bazaar. Such mirrors increase productivity (facilitating experimentation and parallel tasks, allowing off-line work) and even lessens the

Dear R-users, -I am new to R, and I am struggling with the following problem. -I am repeating the following operations hundreds of times, within a loop: I want to subset a data frame by columns. I am interested in the columns names that are given by the rows of another data frame that was built in parallel. The solution I have so far works well as long as the elements of the second data frame

Hello, I have a set of data that has a Date column looks like this: 12/9/2007 12/16/2007 1/1/2008 1/3/2008 1/12/2008 etc. I'd like the date to look something like the follow (so that I could sort by date easily). 20071209 20071216 20080101 20080103 20080112 How to do it?

Anyone ever implimented cfengine on 4.x ? I am just looking for background and if there are any traps to fall into? thanks

Hi all, I''m new to puppet (coming from cfengine). I have a question concerning recursive copy. We have about 20 different types of desktop PC installations (typeA, typeB, ...). Each type has about 10-40 different config files. What I would like to do: I have a file server with the following structure: /dist/typeA /dist/typeB /dist/typeC ... Inside /dist/typeA the config files have

How do I parse a date "yyyymmdd"? I tried asking chron(s, "ymd") but that didn't work. Would the date parsing routines of the Date class of 1.9 grok this? -- Ajay Shah Consultant ajayshah at mayin.org Department of Economic Affairs http://www.mayin.org/ajayshah Ministry of Finance, New Delhi

Hey all, I'm preparing to start development of a new version of 'smbstatus' that produces XML output, instead of the tabular data it currently produces. This follows an attempt to parse the output of the current 'smbstatus' ( 3.0.22) using grep and a few other shell tools, from a system call in PHP, and then further RegEx parsing to create a multidimensional array of the

Hello, I''ve recently begun looking at Puppet as an alternative to Cfengine and I have a couple of questions. 1) Besides the information posted on the Puppet website, are there any critical differences between Puppet and Cfengine? 2) Does Puppet allow for client-specific file text manipulation. For instance, in Cfengine I can add a line of text to a file if the line doesn''t

Hi, in my path of getting the controls sample to work nicely, I fixed some classes on the way, see the attached diffs. I had some difficulties, but could track down all stupid bugs and am now almost happy with the code :) (I had the complete ImageHandler hieracy implemented at some time, but than I discovered the error was not in unloaded ImageHandlers but in the controls-program which does not

The docs to installing cfengine refers to /var/spool/cron/crontabs/root That doesn't exist. Nor does /etc/crontab. Heck I remember that from the "old days", now there are lots of cron entries, in /etc but no crontab. Not installed by default. So, I'm hunting that one down. Nate, what did you wind up doing??
