So, I''ve been doing something like this for applications that have a client and server component... node base_node { include syslog_ng::client }} node app_node inherits base_node { } node syslog_server inherits base_node { include syslog_ng::server } ... because I want the client portion, syslog-ng in this case to be installed on everything. However, the server node also has a

Dear All, I have my puppet servers and clients on puppet 2.7.20 and I am planning to upgrade to the latest version. But the problem is that I have a lot of modules (downloaded from forge and few of my own) which used by hundreds of puppet clients. I need to know 1) Will the functionality of these modules get affected after this upgrade ? 2) Other than ritual of being on the latest verison, are

Hi all, I''m using cobbler as our external node manager and it''s working really well (including deployment of ActiveMQ from RI''s RPMS and Mcollective - blog post coming soon!) however I''ve run into a problem with exim configuration files.

We''re using the ListenAddress directive in our sshd_config to tell which interface sshd is supposed to listen on. Normally it''s the address for eth1, but it might be the address for eth0 if there is none for eth1, and it might be both.. So, could someone help me with the erb template for my sshd_config: ListenAddress <%= sshd_listen_address %> The priority should

Hi all, I''ve come quite far with my puppet setup, but a few times I got this problem: I want to execute a few things if a file isn''t present on the puppet client. For example: I want puppet to check if the mod_passenger apache module exists. If not: installl passenger from gem. Execute the installer, copy the config file and enable the module with a2enmod. What would be the

However I didn''t yet find out how I can add a multiple decision to a confine. so normally I have confine :kernel => :linux but what when kernel can be linux or sunos? just add 2 confines? or can I nest them? something like confine :kernel => :linux||:sunos would be nice.

So, some of us would like to be able to set the nice value on puppetd. However, we don''t want all of our services (and some of our execs) re-niced. Would it be feasible/practical to have the ability to set the nice value explicitly on Service and Exec calls?

Hi I have puppet fully functional, but I have one issue that I can''t seem to be able to solve. default HTTPD is enabled by default, even though none of my classes are doing it. I setup another class to disable this by default, but seems me that there should be better way to do this. Here is what I am seeing in /var/log/messages: (//Service[httpd]/enable) enable changed
