As per my original message: http://reductivelabs.com/trac/puppet/wiki/TypeReference#zone The example provided doesn't work because it doesn't define any of the variables used in the template. As this was my first exposure to the template system (we haven't had any need for it thusfar, most of our configs are site-wide) it wasn't obvious that the template wasn't going to pick that stuff up from the zone type definition it was being called from where "realhostname" *is* being defined, just not as a variable. -- * Matt McLeod | mail: m...@boggle.org | blog: http://abortrephrase.com/ * --- People can do the work, so machines have time to think --- --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
