For a few reasons: There is a missing bit of functionality that is important to me. I know WHAT I want to fox, but I do not know HOW. Also, if I am understanding how this module operates, I have ideas for other modules that use the same base methods. So, I am looking for either the folks that wrote this module or someone who can help me understand it enough for me to make some enhancements to

Here''s one I learned: I originally had # Ensure /etc/hosts contains the basics host { "${fqdn}": host_aliases => $hostname, ip => $ipaddress, } And thru some trial and error, got down to this (which puppet-lint does not gripe about) # Ensure /etc/hosts contains the basics host { $fqdn: host_aliases => $hostname, ip => $ipaddress, }

Is there anything in the Puppet/Passenger setup process that edits httpd.conf and sets the User/Group running apache to "puppet" ? A master I set up several months ago is configured that way. I do not recall doing it. But then the high voltage electroshock therapy does have its side effects :) “Sometimes I think the surest sign that intelligent life exists elsewhere in the

Anyone from puppetmanaged.org listening to this list ? The web page to create an account <http://www.puppetmanaged.org/user/register> is busted. The CAPTCHA does not show up and you cannot register without it. So I tried their mailing list -- <http://www.puppetmanaged.org/mailman/listinfo> I was able to join, but then my attempt to post to the list bounced:

I was working with yumrepo, defining new entried and seeing them appear in /etc/yum.repos.d After considerable tinkering, and with the sad discovery that resource { ''yumrepo'': purge => true } does not work, I moved my working /etc/yum.repos.d to /etc/yum.repos.d-old and re-ran my catalog. To my surprise, the repo entried were appended to /etc/yum.conf Long story short: I

Trying to update a RHEL5 x86_64 server Yum sees puppet-server 3.1.0-1.el5, but does not see puppet 3.1.0-1.el5 I tried cleaning out the cache and trying again, but no luck.

Let''s start with this: class whatever ( $myType=''other'' ) { file { "some-config-file": ... content => $myType ? { ''this'' => template("whatever/this.erb"), ''that'' => template("whatever/that.erb"), ''other'' =>

I am dealing with SSL certificates for secure rsyslog that need to be created on each machine and then collected onto the logging server.

In the documentation, it says: With the latest version, we now have in-built persistence, so this is no longer needed. However, you will still need some basic setup to define pre & post rules. resources { "firewall": purge => true } Firewall { before => Class['my_fw::post'], require => Class['my_fw::pre'], } class {

I am working toward pitching a move from Open Source Puppet to Puppet Enterprise. One of the driving points is that Where-I-Work has just made a huge investment in hardware/software in the form of a VMWare "local cloud". In trying to figure out how to plug my current Puppet setup into it, I keep hitting references to middleware tools like "vSphere CLI for Linux" and

RHEL 6.5 Puppet 3.7.1 puppetlabs-stdlib-4.3.2 Local hardening guidelines say that /usr/local and /var/log/audit have to be separate partitions. OK, so I make "mount" resources. Now the problem: The order of the mount points in /etc/fstab makes a difference. I had /usr/local before /usr, and at boot, the mount of /usr/local failed because the mount point did not (yet) exist. So I need

How about? http://www.firewalld.org/documentation? ?-> firewall.direct(5) https://twoerner.fedorapeople.org/firewalld/doc/firewalld.direct.html priority="priority" The priority is used to order rules. Priority 0 means add rule on top of the chain, with a higher priority the rule will be added further down. Rules with the same priority are on the same level and the order of these

Sharing my stoopid mistake in the hopes of saving someone else the same grief: I had a boolean toggle that was not performing as expected. Long story short: I had put quotes around the word "false" class { ''foo'' : boolFlag => "false" } was coming up TRUE To fix it, lose the quotes class { ''foo'' : boolFlag => false } “Sometimes I
