What''s the correct yum repo to use for installing Puppet & Facter on RHEL5 and Centos5? I used to get them from the dlutter-rhel5 repo but this seems to be massively out of date now - latest version of puppet-server in there is 0.24.5-1.el5 and facter 1.5.4-1.el5. In Epel I see puppet-server 0.24.8-1.el5.1 and facter 1.5.4-1.el5 which is better but isn''t 1.5.4 the version

For 40 days and 40 nights Facter wandered in the wilderness sustained only by the occasional patch and bottle of Kool-Aid.

You can get the release at: http://reductivelabs.com/downloads/facter/facter-1.5.8.tar.gz Please log any

Hi. I''m a beginner, but I have a basic puppet setup working. I am doing a manual tarball installation and it seems to be hanging then eventually timing out on just downloading the file: file { "/opt/hadoop-0.20.0.tar.gz": source => "puppet:///hadoop020/hadoop-0.20.0.tar.gz" } I have another module that does the same things and works, my only guess

I''m using puppet-0.24.8-4.el5 on CentOS 5.4. My problem is yumrepo isn''t writing the "name=" field to the repository files which causes yum to complain with the error: Repository ''local-CentOS-5.4-x86_64'' is missing name in configuration, using id I get this behavior on all of my yumrepo definitions. One of them looks like this: yumrepo {

Does anyone know where I can get the latest puppet, 2.7.1 as RPM''s? The spec file that comes with the puppet 2.7.1 source is broken again, and only version 0.25.5 seems to be available via EPEL, which means that the website''s assertion that you can get puppet as an RPM from there is somewhat untrue.

Hello, I''m new to puppet and facter. Initially we are planning on using facter/puppet to inventory machines (Mac, Ubuntu, and RHEL). We plan on writing a number of custom facts. Obviouly some of the facts will only be specific to some OSs. I know there is a "confine" method, but it confuses me. It seems the confine statement in some of the recipes and in the Turnbull book is

I''ve just filed http://reductivelabs.com/trac/puppet/ticket/1182 with the aim of making it easier to add fact pickup from dmidecode in manufacturer.rb. As the ticket says, I think that the fact sections, keys and values shouldn''t be hardcoded in manufacturer.rb, but should be stored in a configuration file somewhere. This means that a given stable installation of Puppet can be

I see the instructions for creating custom facter recipes here: http://projects.reductivelabs.com/projects/puppet/wiki/Adding_Facts and in this thread, James Turnbull suggests that Facter might some day support other languages besides ruby: http://groups.google.com/group/puppet-users/browse_thread/thread/8c127ae8898d3bcf/c5ca551b77c4eb67?lnk=gst&q=facter+perl#c5ca551b77c4eb67 He writes:
