I have set up puppet on Ubuntu/Debian servers with no problem. I am trying to get puppet working in a RHEL environment. I have the client installed and the certificate is signed so I know the two are talking but for some reason I can not get puppet to push the file on to the client. What am I missing? OS - RHEL5.7 Installation Source - epel-testing repo Puppet server version - 2.6.6 puppetd

We were using Naginator resources like nagios_host, etc. along with stored configurations and exported resources. Worked pretty well. However we have to separate the Puppet master and the Icinga (Nagios) server. They will be on different machines from now on. Are there any best practices for such a scenario? I already thought about some kind of ''rsync'' of the configuration from

have the following in my manifest to delete old uninstall directories and logs using exec since we don''t have tidy for windows yet {code} exec { ''CleanupOldUninstallDirs'': command => ''C:\Windows\system32\forfiles.exe -p "C:\Windows" -m "$NtUninstall*" -d -65 -c "cmd /c dev /F /S /Q @path"'', }

Hello everyone, I am new to puppet. I have installed on redhat Enterprise 5and seems to be working fine.

Hi, I''m new to Puppet so may be going about this completely the wrong way, or perhaps it is an selinux problem rather than a Puppet problem. I have a problem copying a file and changing the seltype. I don''t think it is Nagios specific. Code is something like: file { ''/usr/sbin/nrpe'': source =>

Hi all, I got this directory configuration: file { "${codebase_ng::repository_mount}/${sonatype_work_dir}": ensure => directory, owner => $nexus_user, group => $nexus_group, mode => 0755, recurse => false, backup => false, } Today I added some 100GB of artifacts

We want to use Nagios to monitor out puppet server so we can be notified if it goes down. We are using Fusion Passenger and Apache on Red Hat.

Hello, I've purchased a new dedicated CentOS 6.0 / 64 bit server and have 2 minor problems please: 1) The "hostname" is reported as CentOS-60-64-minimal at CLI - eventhough I've edited /etc/hosts and changed the 2nd line: 127.0.0.1 localhost 176.9.123.123 preferans 2) Why is /etc/localtime a regular file? Should I maybe rm /etc/localtime ln -s

All, I have 3 servers. All 3 are CentOS 5.5. All 3 have identical /etc/ssh/sshd_config files. I used ssh-keygen (with no arguments) to generate keys with no password. I then added all 3 id_rsa.pub keys to the authorized_keys file. With this set up, I should be able to ssh between all 3 boxes without needing a password. The problem is that one of the servers keeps asking for a password even with

Have a CentOS 4.x 32 bit server running on a single 500M SATA drive. What is easiest way to convert too RAID 1 on it? Anyone have a link? Would be open to hardware or software just do not want to reinstall the entire mess.

Given that the Document Foundation has now split away from Oracle to continue the development of an independent office suite, do we have any idea which was CentOS and Red Hat are planning to go in this area - OpenOffice or LibreOffice? I know that LibreOffice is not production ready yet - they only have their first beta available, but it's just a matter of (likely a short) time before the

Oh where to begin? I work for a company that has not taken our Linux or Unix server configuration management very seriously. We are primarily a Windows shop but long story short upper-management has taken the advice of our Windows Server admins and purchased BigFix which is now IBM Tivoli Endpoint Management (TEM). I have tried for over a month to get one of my SuSE Linux Enterprise Server (SLES)

Hi everyone; I am trying to change the location of where the ssl cert files are stored.

Hi ! I need a plot for data extending over several orders of magnitude on the y axis. The following command generates a nice looking semi-log plot for my data: plot(x,y,log="y",type="l",lty=3, ylim=c(0.01,2),yaxp=c(0.01,1,1),las=1) I would appreciate having also minor tick marks in-between the 3 major ticks obtained with the above command.

Hi All, I currently make use of Icinga (nagios fork) + Puppet for fully automated monitoring. It''s worked great up to this point. I''ve recently been asked to integrate fine grained notifications support into icinga. I''m not entirely sure puppet manifests are the right place to manage contacts, contact groups, and their use within host and service definitions for

How do I tell puppet to log somewhere other than /var/log/messages. None of the logging configuration options seem to do anything any more. Specifically puppetdlog. # The log file for puppet agent. This is generally not used. # The default value is ''$logdir/puppetd.log''. puppetdlog = /var/lib/puppet/log/puppetd.log -- You received this message because you are

Hi All, I would like to pick your brains as to the best way to configure the below senario within puppet. I am currently configuring puppet for our environment and have seperated development/back office from production through configuring roles for each server to identify them as such.
