Hi Rob and ALL,

Unfortunately,

following pp file creating 1st instances and then are adding new
( I've tried just one ntp1 or triad ntp1,2,3 )

class ntpd{

    service { ntpd:
        name => "ntpd",
        enable => true,
        ensure => running,
        require => File["/etc/ntp.conf"],
    }

    file { "/etc/ntp.conf" :
        owner => "root",
        group => "root",
        mode  => 664,
        require => [Package["ntp"], Augeas["/etc/ntp.conf"]]
    }

    package { ntp: ensure => present }

    augeas{"/etc/ntp.conf":
        context => "/files/etc/ntp.conf",
        changes => [
            "set server[server = 'ntp1.example.com']
'ntp1.example.com'",
            "set server[server = 'ntp2.example.com']
'ntp2.example.com'",
            "set server[server = 'ntp3.example.com']
'ntp3.example.com'",
        ],
    }

}

Thank you, I'll look for it.

It can be anything else - like nameserver strings in resolv.conf etc.

That is my basic question how to debug augeas - augtool is fine to
test some part of future puppet procedure/method but  then I can't
debug what is happening at time of puppet execution, except that if I
have some syntax error.



Also where to look for all these  functions like last()?

And where is description of augeas behavior?
