Hi all, I''m working on a ext-node script that will use oauth to authenticate against the node database and I''m wondering if it is possible to read the puppet.conf file easily in this script so I can place the oauth key/secret into this file (and basically avoid maintaining my own config file!) Is there an easy way of doing this, or do I need to read in a parse the file myself?

Hi, I''m trying to do something a bit strange, so just say if I''m doing it wrong ;) I''m trying to keep a file off the puppet clients, but have the data available at run time. In this case it''s a key for an encrypted volume I''m having Puppet set up. To accomplish that I''m trying to use the fileserver client to grab the data as needed, the code

Hello All, I would like to ask how to get LDAP attributes from outside of the host container. What do I mean by "host container": It''s basically a tree node in LDAP that holds (contains) host-specific attributes. This would for instance be a node identified by the following DN:

Ok, I''ve got a repository of configuration files I use for my Linux environment and would like to leverage this with Puppet (instead of having dupes in my /module/*/files folder). So, I''ve put symbolic links in the files folder pointing to the actual config file. I''m receiving a "Failed to retrieve current state of resource: Could not retrieve information from

Hello Puppet Cohorts, I wish to install programs on Windows that do not use the MSI installer. After finding a guide on-line for silencing most installers (http://unattended.sourceforge.net/installers.php) I feel confident I can write a short script for Puppet to "exec" on my hosts to silently install most of what I need. What I can''t decide on a "best" way to test

I''m attempting to run Puppet 3.2.3 on RHEL6 and am running into key problems. The keys seem to be exchanged, or at least the puppet master receives the key from the client: lib_puppet2.library.nd.edu|root no_ora /var/lib/puppet 1029$ puppet cert list --all + "puptest1.library.nd.edu" (SHA256)

Hi guys, Currently the windows package provider does not support versions (like ensure => 1.2.3). Even though most packages set a DisplayVersion key in the registry - so the version is often available. Now I need to upgrade my puppet clients from v3.1.1 to v3.2.3-rc1 (to get facts.d support on windows) - and I was wondering if any of you had a suggestion as to how to handle it, until

Hi everyone, I have a fact which looks like that: drbdconnectionstate0. You see the "0" at the end... Now I''d like to access this fact in a "dynamic" way, the "0" should be variable. I''m thinking of something like that: if ${drbdconnectionstate0}${drbddevice} == ''Unconfigured''. But as you may guess, this does not work... Has

Hi! In a tight security environnement, we have to keep minimum access rights. We found that /tmp/passenger.{pid}/backends is d-ws-wx-wx on root:root. This directory is used by mod_passenger to keep execution queues. Is it possible to limit those access rights? Why is it world writable? I''m wondering If somebody knows how to avoid keeping write access to the world? Thank you -- You

I left my new puppetmasterd running last night. came in with a stack trace below. A number of questions: 1. Where did /Settings come from? 2. Is there a way to dump the contents of the catalog to understand? 3. I want to change the perms for all that stuff 4. puppetd is not running on this host, does puppetmasterd act like a puppetd? notice: Compiled catalog for inst01.corp.631h.metaweb.com

Hi We have on our systems old school software which is only installable via tar. I have the tar in <pathtomodules>module/file/software.tar How can I now access this file to untar it via an exec command. With the file type I think it is not possible, otherwise the tar gets downloaded every time puppet runs (because I remove the tar after installation) Any Ideas how I can access the file in
