Hello All, New puppet user here. I''ve been able to create and use my own puppet modules, but I''m at a loss on how to use modules from PuppetForge, which seem quite a bit more advanced. For example, I''ve installed the camptocamp/apt module via the command ''puppet-module install camptocamp/apt'' into /etc/puppet/modules. I then tried to add the following

Hello, I would like to have the following line (among others) in my /etc/xinetd.d/rsync file : server_args = --daemon --address=<ipaddress_eth0> --log-file=/var/log/rsyncd.log To this end, i am using the camptocamp rsyncd module available from git.

Hi everyone, I am new to Puppet and try to make some simple "automation things". I have succeed with apache2, ssh modules, but have problems with Puppetlabs mysql module.

Hi all, I'm having a recurrent problem with Omega's indexing. When I run omindex, it sometimes misses to recognize the extension of some files (.doc, .pdf) and skips them.

Hi all, I''ve been looking into having Puppet deploy some larger files and I''m noticing that it ties up puppetmasters quite a bit and can often result in a timeout if the file is too large. Before I submit a feature request for a http method for file sources, I would throw it out to the group and see if anyone had any thoughts on it. Possible benefits of a HTTP source could be
