I have some 'service' definitions in a parameterised class: class snort($name, $master) { service{ "snort.$master": start => "sudo -u snort /home/snort/bin/restart-snort $sensor" , ...... }
which get invoked from within a define: define sensor ( $name, $master, $instance, $rule_categories, $base_filter, $rule_files ) { class { snort: stage => post, master => $master, sensor => $name } .......... } the service needs to be defined in a class to get the staging to work. This works fine until I define another sensor on the same host then puppet complains about duplicate classes. The key thing is that I don't want the services started until everything else is in place -- I could possibly do this with a bunch of requires but it would be messy as there are several. Any ideas about the best way to handle this? Russell -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
