"open" isn't the best way in the world to install packages in OS X. installer -pkg facter-1.5.7.pkg -target / does a proper command line based install. I'd suggest getting a bug report in about mkusers on OS X, or chiming in on an existing one, as this has confused a lot of people, and we can do better. Do you really need to set up fileserver.conf? I never touch it anymore, and just use modules for everything, which automatically create mountpoints. Did you need to make all those directories by hand? Puppet should do that for you, and if not, I'd put in bug reports if that's not working on OS X. The aim should be for you to not have to do any of the stuff you've done in your postinstall script I reckon. > > Take care, > Trevor > > -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups > "Puppet Users" group. > To post to this group, send email to puppet-us...@googlegroups.com. > To unsubscribe from this group, send email to > puppet-users+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com. > For more options, visit this group at > http://groups.google.com/group/puppet-users?hl=en. > > -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
