hi guys,
I am having an unusual behaviour in puppet with AIX (client node) while
copying ssh key from puppet-server to client.
here is what i am trying to do;
$username = "xyz"
$group = "system"
$home = "/home"
$sshDir = ".ssh"
$pub_key = "id_rsa.pub.xyz"
1. creating all users virtually in one go
2. realize them all and copy each of their's .ssh/authorized_keys. The
keys are located on puppetserver with name
"/etc/puppet/modules/userkeys/id_rsa.pub.$username".
in puppet i m writting following code to copy each users' key from server to
cient-nodes.
...
...
$sourcepath = $operatingsystem ? {
AIX => "/etc/puppet/modules/userkeys/files/$pub_key.$username",
default => "puppet:///SLES/$pub_key.${username}", *#
Linux nodes pick the file path mentioned in the fileserver.conf, however,
AIX doesnot picking up*
}
...
...
file { "${home}/${username}/$sshDir/authorized_keys":
ensure => "present",
owner => $username,
group => $group,
mode => 600,
require => File["${home}/${username}/${sshDir}"],
#source => "puppet:///userkeys/files/${pub_key}.${username}",
source => $sourcepath,
}
when i run this script on Linux nodes, it executes successfully and all
users created with the their keys but on AIX the users are created but keys
are not deployed there and i am getting this errr:
*File[/home/xyz/.ssh/authorized_keys]/ensure:
No specified sources exist*
PS: Though I found a hack to copy the keys from server and deploy them on
client nodes but i am still wondering why my AIX client is not able to
retreive the sourcepath from server when my SLES clients are able to
retrieve it.
one more thing i am not creating any ssh key but actually copying it from
hosted server to the clients.
what am i doing wrong here? waiting for your response
