similar to: Executing check times out

Here is my situation: 1. We use Active directory (LDAP) to store all user info which is retrieved from linux 2. A home directory is not created until the first time the user logs into the linux system I am using the ssh_authorized_key type to push out my ssh keys to every system. However, because I haven''t logged into every system at least once. Puppet errors out due to a missing

Hi I am trying to configure hosts.allow using augeas with puppet. I can add a ip range if process exists with this code augeas { "Add ${name} to ${process}": context => "/files/etc/hosts.allow", changes => "set *[process=''${process}'']/client[last()+1] ${name}", onlyif => "match

Hi. I am having a few problems with augeas and need some help. What I am trying to use is augeas to update the cron.allow file. I can get augeas to add the required name but I am having problems with getting it to add the name once. augeas { "check_mk_cron.allow" : context => "/files/etc/cron.allow", # changes => "set

Hi, One thing I''d like to be able to do is this... define sedfile ( $file = '''', $target = '''', $pattern = '''', $options = ''-i -n'' , onlyif = '''' ) { case $file { '''': { err ( "Require valid filename: ''$file''" ) } } case $target {

I would like to ''exec'' an installation script ''onlyif'' an installation directory is empty. I tried using following bash one-liner however it didn''t work: <code> exec{$one_install_script: require => File[$one_install_script], onlyif => "[ \"$(/bin/ls -A $one_location)\" ] && exit 1 || exit 0" }

I''m trying to change the password complexity requirements in pam.d/system-auth using augeas. I can append the values (lcredit=-1, ucredit=-1, etc) onto the correct place, but if another value is already present (i.e. lcredit=-2), the onlyif match statement doesn''t seem to support checking regular expressions inside of strings. How do I check that any numeric value exists in the

Hi, After extensively looking into puppet + augeas for managing the AllowGroups in sshd_config, I came to the conclusion that it won''t work as I expected :( So I''m sharing my thoughts here. The main objective is allowing multiple groups per-node, depending on what the security team wants. Since I want this to be dynamic, I created a define in a class: class ssh::server::config

Hello, I am in the process of "trying out" Puppet, and so far, it is going really well, and I can see a clear line of how we can use it internally. I do have one question though with regard to the using the onlyif parameter of the exec command (as per here http://docs.puppetlabs.com/references/latest/type.html#exec). Ideally, what I would like to do is to only run a PowerShell exec

Hi! I using Augeas to handle dump and passno for certain mount points in /etc/fstab. Each mount point is defined as it''s own augeas block: augeas { ''homeLV'': context => ''/files/etc/fstab'', changes => [

I have the following exec in my manifest : exec { some_exec: path => [ "/bin","/usr/bin","/usr/local/bin" ], command => "EXECUTE COMMAND 1", onlyif => "EXECUTE COMMAND 2", logoutput => "on_failure" } I want that the "COMMAND 1" should be executed by "USER 1" and "COMMAND 2"

Bryan -- I''m using the puppet augeas plugin at http://git.et.redhat.com/?p=ace.git;a=blob;f=modules/augeas/plugins/puppet/type/augeas.rb;h=2346c37d724d7607ed4e09b0413700bec2b7cbed;hb=HEAD I''m running into a behavior that I wouldn''t expect. I''d like to confirm an entry in sysctl.conf by changing the value if necessary or appending the key/value if it

Hi, Is it possible to get response of a command from puppet ? For example if I run "nginx -t" it would give some details about the configurations i.e. if configuration has some error then which file has the error !

Hi, I am new to this and I discovered a manifest in an old post that should change passwords. It runs fine, but the password does not change. I am wondering how this would work since it would need to change the shadow. Thanks define change_passwd($user,$passwd) { exec { "/usr/bin/puppet apply -v -e \''user { \"${user}\": password => \"${passwd}\"

Hi, My brain is hurting a bit over this one. How does one delete ypbind cleanly from a RHEL6 box? It has a dep of yp-tools. No problem...I add both to the uninstall list in hiera; packages_oel6_absent: <snip> - ypbind - yp-tools SNIP from manifest; $packagesabsent = hiera("${packages_key}_absent",''nil'') if

I''m troubled with a node-definition not able to resolve a class: Could not find class rhnsd::common at /etc/puppet/manifests/nodes.pp: 8 on node X Content of manifest/site.pp: import "nodes.pp" [...] The layout of modules/rhnsd/ is: |-- files | `-- up2date-rhn |-- manifests | |-- client.pp | |-- common.pp | |-- init.pp | `-- rhn.pp A `cat'' from each

Here''s what I''m using: exec { "cert-fix": command => "curl http://curl.haxx.se/ca/cacert.pem -o /etc/pki/tls/certs/ca-bundle.crt", onlyif => "test -e /etc/pki/tls/certs/ca-bundle.crt", } But it keeps on failing: > [default] Running Puppet with /tmp/vagrant-puppet/manifests/acid.pp... > Parameter onlyif failed: ''test -e

So I can''t quite see how to do this in the existing syntax. Ideally there would be an onlyif parameter for packages, but that doesn''t seem to be the case. I could create a fact that returns true or false depending on whether the file exists, but that doesn''t feel like the right way to do it either. I could do something like: $file_exists =

Hi guys! I need configure one command exec with onlyif parameter. I want test file size exist or no. Ho i do this? Tks in advanced.

Hey gang, I seem to be having a brain disconnect on how to get the Augeas type to manage things that have multiple values (i.e. an Augeas tree) via Puppet. If I run this in augtool: augtool> set /files/etc/ssh/sshd_config/AllowGroups/1000 sshuser augtool> save I see this in /etc/ssh/sshd_config: AllowGroups sshuser However, if I try this in an Augeas type: augeas {
