A portion of my autofs class: class autofs { package { autofs: ensure => installed } # Only update /etc/auto.master if it doesn't exist, or if it has the same # contents as the original package install. Ie. do not overwrite user changes # to the file. # Compute the sha hash of the current file, and the original template, to see if # the file has changed. It it has, set "replace" to no. /dev/null is used to # prevent exceptions when the files don't exist (if /dev/null doesn't exist, we # can assume we are f$cked) $tmp_a = sha1(file("/etc/auto.master", "/dev/null")) $tmp_b = sha1(file("/usr/share/autofs/conffiles/auto.master", "/dev/null")) if $tmp_a == $tmp_b { $replace_master = yes } else { $replace_master = no } rootfile { "/etc/auto.master": replace => $replace_master, source => "autofs/auto.master" } } --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
