-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi, I''m using the "delete_lines" definition from http://reductivelabs.com/trac/puppet/wiki/SimpleTextRecipes . However, when I use it to remove a line with the pattern "/proc/kmsg" I need to escape the slashes for sed/grep and so I end up with "\/proc\/kmsg", but then I get this notices in the log of

Hi all... A few weeks ago, I installed (and configured) the three recommended scripts to run yum update check via cron.daily on my CentOS 5.6 server (a Dell 2650). Although it is clearly configured to "check only", it appears to be updating, instead. Has something (environmentally?) changed between the version of CentOS under which those scripts were originally authored and version

I am stuck with ubuntu 9.04 as puppet master server. But puppet version is old on ubuntu 9.04: puppetmaster,puppet 0.24.5-3 Would it be possible to upgrade it to the latest version, without upgrading the OS? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.

I am by no means an expert along these lines, but should the following small program lock out (for 60 seconds) elements of the shadow suit such as chsh ?? ------------------------ #include <stdlib.h> #include <shadow.h> void main() { if(lckpwdf()) { printf("Failed to get password locks\n"); exit(0); }

Hi, I need to add one line to /etc/securetty, say it needs to be ttyS1. Do not add it if ttyS1 already exists in file /etc/securetty. How to achieve this using puppet module in puppet 2.5? This file is different than the other examples using augeas, this one only has value per line, not name-val pair. Thanks, Hai -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups

In puppet stdlib doc here at https://github.com/puppetlabs/puppetlabs-stdlib, it only mentions its support for puppet 2.6 and puppet 2.7. Puppet 3.0.1 is not listed there. Why puppet 3.x is not listed in the above doc as supported? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group. To post to this group, send email to

I have copied the simple text snippets into a pp file and set a host to attempt to add lines, but regardless if the line is there or not, it still adds it... what am I doing wrong? in definitions/linetests.pp: define append_if_no_such_line($file, $line) { exec { "echo ''$line'' >> ''$file''": unless => "grep -qe

Hi, I wanted to set the project property of a Solaris user after realizing the user. Have already created the project by adding a line to /etc/ project. The user is created in virtual::user class wich is inherited by the target class to be able to add the project property. The project of the user xxxx gets not set properly and remains default when I use the project property ! Had to fall back

Hi, I''d like to hear opinions from FreeBSD users. I''ve wrote a freebsd service provider, which is available as Ticket #837. http://reductivelabs.com/trac/puppet/ticket/837 This hack extends init service provider, by adding enable method. With freebsd.rb, you can enable services like other service providers do. service { foo: ensure => running, enable => true, ...

This was a fun one to track down... I was trying to use the append_if_no_such_line script from the wiki and it was working fine EXCEPT when I threw a notify at it. The notify appears to completely ignore both unless and onlyif within the exec for some reason. If I put the same test in the actual command line, it works fine. Example: unless => "/bin/grep -Fqe ''$line''

Can I use puppet to ensure that a file includes certain text but not be required to maintain the entire file? For example, I would like /etc/modprobe.conf to contain the following lines but the file will also contain lines that are system dependent. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- # Disable IPV6 alias net-pf-10 off alias ipv6 off

Hi, I have this resource definition: ssh_authorized_key { "nagios@login2": key => [REDACTED] user => "nagios", type => "ssh-dss", require => Service[''nis''], } This nagios user comes from NIS, yp.conf and nsswitch.conf are handled by puppet and configured before the key.

Hi .*, with the first puppet run on a freshly installed system all custom types and providers a synced. As you can see from the output for some reason puppet tries to load the providers before the types and therefore the custom provider loads throw an error. It looks like the load happens alphabetically ordered, such that providers are loaded before the types... Anyway the puppet run afterwards
