Hello puppet-users,

I'm fairly new to puppet; I've just started to manage few machines at
home with it. I have a question regarding possible ways of handling
pulseaudio cookie distribution.

My current setup looks like this:

pulse-server ------(tcp)------ pulse-client-1, pulse-client-2, pulse-
client-3, ...

There is an authentication mechanism between pulseaudio clients and
the server. Upon startup, server generates a file called pulse-cookie
and places it in /var/run/pulse/.pulse-cookie. Once the file is
created, I go and copy this file over to all the client machines and
put it into /etc/pulse-cookie; pulse client applications read this
file and use it for authentication.

pulse-client-1 $ sudo scp [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/var/run/.pulse-cookie /
etc/pulse-cookie
Password:

...I repeat the procedure on each pulse client.

I want to automate cookie distribution using puppet. The problem is
that the cookie doesn't originate on puppetmaster, it's being created
on one of puppet clients (pulse-server is a puppet client).

How would you solve pulse cookie file distribution?

Maciej
