It's the minimum required syntax for declaring a resource. The : is required
to seperate the resource title and the list of attributes:
Thanks for the explanation. Shame the colon isn't optional when there are no
attributes ;-)
You can use puppet filebucket command to backup the files before the exec, but
in this case why not use the file resource?
file { "/etc/timezone":
content => $name,
}
Oh, I didn't realise you could do that! That's much better, thanks for the
info.
Thanks Patrick as well for the idea with writing to a temp folder and then
copying it, that's an interesting workaround.
Cheers,
Adam.
