Not contradicting anything said before, but yes, puppet can handle that. Rather than keep a separate copy of each server's configuration file in version control, you'll possibly want to keep a template of the configuration files in version control, and let the puppetmaster server customize those templates for each server as needed. Early on, you'll probably want to switch from making piecemeal puppet classes to making self-contained modules that contain all the files, templates, and puppet manifests to configure a particular service. Example of such a module for Amanda is at http://blogs.cae.tntech.edu/mwr/2007/08/02/the-new-file-server-puppet-and-modules/ -- not trivially simple, but not too complex, either. -- Mike Renfro / R&D Engineer, Center for Manufacturing Research, 931 372-3601 / Tennessee Technological University -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
