I use Augeas for `sudoers`. This allows you to manage individual entries, instead of replacing the entire file. For instance, this will add an entry for a user named “joe” unless that entry already exists. augeas { "sudojoe": context => "/files/etc/sudoers", changes => [ "set spec[last() + 1]/user joe", "set spec[last()]/host_group/host ALL", "set spec[last()]/host_group/command ALL", "set spec[last()]/host_group/command/runas_user ALL", ], onlyif => "match *[user = 'joe'] size == 0", } -- Rob McBroom <http://www.skurfer.com/> -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
