I don't know about Luke, but I do. That provides not only control over the repository contents, but also (for me) much better performance, as my queries and package retrievals do not have to leave my internal network. I also get better availability because the repository has fewer clients, and if it ever goes down I can fix it. Moreover, you then have the option to rely on your local repository instead of Puppet for control of package versions. That is, maintain in your repository only those software versions you want to use, and let your Package resources all simply specify the "latest" version. No more tweaking manifests when you qualify a new package version! Cheers, John -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
