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

I am using stdlib module''s validate_re function to validate parameters passed to a parameterized class as pasted here: http://pastebin.com/7eYAeLEa . The validation works fine however when I run this manifest locally using ''puppet apply'' command where puppet execution stops if a validation test fails. However when I use it in client-server model then I do see a

hello, i''m just playing around with the really great puppet to learn the syntax and see what it can do. i''m using puppet 0.22.1 on debian etch. i created a aide class to distribute a modified aide.conf.d directory and if not already done initialize the database (yes this should probably be better organized and databas initialization should be performed as the last step):

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

Hello, I am still not getting warm with augeas and puppet, there are some things I do not understand. At the moment I am trying the following: - I want to set some kernel parameters in the /etc/sysctl.conf file - in one puppet module, I have defined some default values for the kernel parameters - but for several servers I want to modify some of these values, therefore I would like to overwrite

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

Here is my situation: 1. We use Active directory (LDAP) to store all user info which is retrieved from linux 2.

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

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 {

Hi, Just recently two nodes begun to hang, I cant see that there have been any changes in our manifest. Debug output: [...] debug: //Node[X]/X[X]/Exec[create dir]: Executing check ''test \! -d / dir'' debug: Executing ''test \! -d /dir'' [...] Here it hangs for several minutes, executin the statement manually works of course. The manifest: exec {

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.

Example: unless => "/bin/grep -Fqe ''$line''
