Is anyone using puppetlabs-firewall with IPv6?
Hi all,
I''m cleaning up some puppet manifests, and thought it would be a good
opportunity to move from my own monolithic iptables/ip6tables modules
to the official puppetlabs-firewall module.
But... what''s the deal with IPv6?
My first concern was that there is no easy way to have simple rules be
applied to both iptables and ip6tables. Fair enough, I just wrote a
simple wrapper

failure building memcached rpm
Hi all,
I need to install the latest memcached version (1.4.20) on a number of
machines in this environment. There are only rpm's of this app for RHEL 6.
But we need to install the latest memcached on a number of RHEL 5 machines.
To be specific, they are OEL 5.7 hosts.
I've installed all of the developers tools that I would need.
But when I go to build the RPM I am getting the

problems ensuring that a service is absent
Hi,
I''m trying to be really, really sure that a specific service is not
running. The central part of this looks like that:
service { ''foo'': ensure => stopped, enable => false }
->
package { ''foo'': ensure => purged }
The astute reader will notice that on the second run puppet will
complain that the init script for foo is

Help with retrieving a user's environment variable
Hi,
I need to get the environment variable ORACLE_SID from the OS. I know this can be done with the following:
$blah = env("PATH")
However, the ORACLE_SID variable is only set under the oracle user account. So I would need a way to login as the oracle account first to retrieve the ORACLE_SID variable. Is there anyway to get the environment variable from a user''s account

using memorysize fact in manifests
Hi,
I want some config depending on memorysize.
What I tried was
if ($memorysize >= 256 * 1024*1024) {
...
}
But this fails because $memorysize is a string (and contains a "G") and can''t be
compared to an int.
Are all facts strings? How do I work with numbers?
regards, Andreas

Upgrade from 2.4.4 to 2.4.6
Hi,
I've had some issues with rsync over ssh with version 2.4.4 which an update
to 2.4.6 fixed. The problem I have now is that machines which do not have a
valid reverse dns entry for their IP addresses get empty directory listings
from the server, even though they can get the module list and the motd each
time. This is what I see in the server's log file for each attempt from
such hosts

Segfault when parsing configuration on x86_64
Hi,
Using the exact same build of 1.0.beta3, one i386 and the other x86_64, I
get segfaults upon startup with the x86_64 version when using the exact
same dovecot.conf file.
Here is the error :

MySQL auth issues?
Hi,
Since my last email about RHEL4 problems on x86_64, I've kept trying to
figure out what the problem might be, and just ran into a reply to an old
email I sent to the list, which I had missed. It suggests that the issue
might be in the MySQL authentication that I'm using.
Here is a more detailed log entry, with auto debugging on :

Managing recompiled packages?
Hi,
I'm using Centos 5.0 on my desktop, and I'm very happy with it. One
question bothers me. I rebuilt a handful of apps, for example K3B to
enable MP3 audio, or libshout and mpd, to enable streaming audio.
Now what happens if these get updated? I guess the new version will
squash my personal version. Is there a way to prevent these packages
from being updated? Or how should I handle

Managing backtrace
I''m writing a method_missing handler to "automagically" create
assertions from predicate functions. So, for example, one use might be:
assert_not_include ''joes@shmoe.com'', response.to
-or-
assert_include ''info@mydomain.com'', response.from
The code is working properly, but when I trigger an assert, the
backtrace shows something like:

Managing large file uploads - best practice?
Hello everyone,
I''ve got an app where I need to give the user the facility to upload a
large-ish (up to maybe 10Mb) CSV file. I really don''t want to have to
deal with idiots uploading porn, /dev/zero, and whatever else they
feel I might appreciate - I want to eliminate everything that isn''t a
valid CSV file as quickly as possible in the upload process.

managing dates in forms
Hi,
I have a field for the user which is their birthday. I am letting them
edit it and then save it if they want. However, the form displays the
current date/time, and when they save the form without changing the
birthdate (because they do not wish to set it), the current date/time
gets saved to the db. How do I do this? I thought about having a
hidden field which would be the current date/time

Creating and managing Rails routes on the fly
