I have a custom fact. It syncs correctly, works correctly everywhere when run via ''facter'', and works correctly from puppet on all but one machine. >From ''facter'': # export FACTERLIB=/var/puppet/facts # /opt/puppet/bin/facter itg_location mel But from within puppetd I get: Sep 13 14:54:29 hordac puppetd[768]: [ID 702911 daemon.warning] Could not load fa

I have the following set up: schedule {nightly: period => daily, range => "18 - 23", repeat => 1 } define deadlypkg { tag("package") $pkgrepo="/staging/PRODUCTION/deadly" package{"$name": source => "$pkgrepo/$name.pkg", ensure => latest, adminfile

I''m following the example provided in the type reference under ''zone'', i.e.: zone{myzone: autoboot=>true, create_args=>"-b", ip=>"nge0:10:130.55.201", path=>"/zoneds/%s", realhostname=>"myzone.example.com",

I''m trying to write a wrapper definition for the file type to make it a bit smarter. I have a basic version working fairly well: define xfile($owner = root, $group = root, $mode = 644, $source, $backup = main, $recurse = false, $ensure = file) { file { $name: mode => $mode, owner => $owner, group => $group, backup => $backup, recurse

Greetings, I have a solaris package stored on a puppet server. I''d like to be able to maintain the package on a client system without having to also keep a copy of the package file on the client system. (think lots and lots of packages) Checksums work okay for noticing changes on the fileserver, but it seems that I have to keep a local copy of the file as well. When I rev the package

I''m new to puppet so this might be a foolish question. I''m using Solaris 10, server is Sparc, my client is x86. I created a ''file chown'' manifest as a test ... /etc/puppet/manifests/classes/puppet.pp class puppet { file { "/etc/puppet.txt": owner => "root", group => "root",

I''m trying to learn how to set up Puppet and am coming across a number of dead links in the wiki.

Guys, I've had a weird problem with Sendmail misbehaving in a way I don't really understand. I've worked round the problem but I'd like to understand what was going on. The MX for one of our domains, blah.com, pointed at an internal Exchange server. Mail relayed to a Sendmail MailScanner which then delivered to Exchange for this domain. The domain expired leading to all its mail

Hi while usings DavidS mysql module with its custom mysql types I hit some kind of a chicken/egg problem: While deploying mysql, I also like to define some mysql munin user, to enable munin monitoring for mysql things. I choosed to use the mysql_user type from DavidS and it works perfectly. However I start using the custom types on a host where mysql have already been installed. Now I should

Hello all, After banging my head against my desk for a few hours, I''m posting here (after being told this isn''t a bug). I''m trying to use puppet to install some packages on my fedora clients, som on my puppet master i created a class with the following contents: class fedora-ws { include atrpms-repo $packages = ["subversion"] package

Hi, Dovecot 1.1.3 is running on Mac OS X 10.5 latest version, with Maildir (LAYOUT=fs). I have following issues when Entourage 2008 connects it, over imap/imaps. Entourage does not cache the mails. After every restart the folder contents are fetched fresh. I have enabled the Entourage option to get entire messages. Entourage caches the gmail IMAP folders fine. Also Outlook 2007 does not

Hi, I have been getting the below error for sometime now. Both master and client are using version 0.24.8. Output from /var/log/messages err: Could not call puppetmaster.getconfig: #<#<Class:0xb7b50a9c>: execution expired> err: Could not retrieve catalog: execution expired P.S- all of this was working absolutely fine and suddenly has started to misbehave.

I am trying to setup puppet for use with ldap. Following the page (http://www.reductivelabs.com/trac/puppet/wiki/LdapNodes ) I run ruby -rldap -e ''puts :installed'' with success, however ruby - rpuppet -e ''p Puppet.features.ldap?'' fails with ruby: no such file to load -- puppet (LoadError) I imagine that it is related to how I have things installed. I am

Let''s say I have two different geographic sites. They are pretty much identical ie. each site has a machine called web1 which is a web server, etc. Except there are couple site-specific settings ie. outgoing DNS servers are different, SSL certs are different etc. On the puppetmaster I can put in a file called e.g. /etc/sideid which would uniquely identify a site ie. siteX or siteY.

Hello all, I''d like to have Puppet distributing one of your server''s (public) SSH keys, effectively doing the same as the ssh-copy-id command. Is there a build in puppet resource type for managing SSH keys. We''re running version 0.24.4 of puppet.

Hi, installing puppet at my first site was quite easy (not w/o problems, but still). At the second site, I''ve run into something more serious. First things first - I install puppetmaster on existing server, used to keep LDAP db (my puppetmaster DOES NOT use LDAP, it just tries to coexist on the same machine). The thing is, I need to puppet this baby, so I''m running into a

Out of curiosity, I pulled 1188 records out of /var/log/messages, and extracted the number of seconds required to compile the manifest. Ran the output through perl and Excel to get a graph of count vs time to see what the puppetmaster box performance looks like. This excludes data out to the 2200 second mark, where the virtual machine got its knickers in a twist. Puppetmaster runs in a VMware

I have a user who has Mac OS 10.4.8 with Entourage X. The email server is sendmail 8.13.8 and is setup to use STARTTLS on a CentOS 4.4 system. It appears from everything I have googled that only Entourage 2004 will properly function with STARTTLS. Has anybody any experience with Entourage X ... specifically is there something I am missing regarding the CentOS server setup or are all Entourage

Hi Guys, I recently configured an mail server running postfix + dovecot + mysql + postfixadmin, everything is running ok except for Mac Entourage clients which is a PITA IMO, I always get a authentication not supported error while thunderbird and outlook on windows don't. Any ideas or workaround? my dovecot version is dovecot-1.0.7-2.el5. here's the output of dovecot.conf and

Heya, I''m using puppet on Ubuntu (Gutsy/Hardy) and there''s a problem with the default setup of Ubuntu. Ubuntu uses network-manager to start the network in the background, which in turn causes puppet to start before the network is up. Puppet will then exit because it can''t resolve the server name. Currently I "solve" this problem by uninstalling
