Hi all, I'm just starting to look at using Augeas with Puppet to manage some of our configuration files. I thought I would start with a simple task of removing an entry from the /etc/hosts file. I'm not finding it simple though!
We have a number of hosts with entries in the /etc/hosts file like this: 127.0.1.1 hostname We would like to remove these lines. Now I know this can be done with a simple exec of sed but if possible I would like to use it as a good test exercise with Augeas. Now, it's pretty easy to do this with augtool, as follows: r...@miscreant:/home/pre500# augtool augtool> match /files/etc/hosts/*/ipaddr 127.0.1.1 /files/etc/hosts/4/ipaddr augtool> rm /files/etc/hosts/4 rm : /files/etc/hosts/4 3 augtool> save Saved 1 file(s) But I can't see how this would translate to work in Puppet as I need to match the relevant path before I can issue the rm. Am I missing something obvious here? -- Paul Elliott, UNIX Systems Administrator Computing Service, University of York -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
