0.24.4 is a good, solid version. It has a few bugs, but they are pretty esoteric, and shouldn't bite you if you are just starting. > If there's something the community thinks is a good stable package > build of current puppet versions in RPM for various rpm-based systems, > maybe it could be mentioned in <http://reductivelabs.com/trac/puppet/ > wiki/DownloadingPuppet>?

When it comes to RedHat and derivatives, I can't give you a good answer; I hope the community can. On the whole, I can tell you that, at Digg, we roll our own package from the latest "stable" release. Right now, that's 0.24.5. This method has worked quite well for us so far, with the caveat that our *production* Puppet installation is still small. YMMV. --Paul --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
