Hi Guys,
Changing the server directive in the puppet conf worked!!! Thanks so
much for your help!!
Also I sent an email yesterday regarding file sharing to the list.
Sorry to be a bother, but I am still struggling with this issue.
Does anyone have any advice regarding this?
Here is the email I sent for easy reference:
-----------------------------
Hi Atha,
This is what the basefiles class that I have created looks like now:
class basefiles {
file { "/etc/ldap.conf":
source => "puppet:///snjh/ldap.conf"
}
file { "/etc/haha.txt":
source => "puppet:///snjh/haha.txt"
}
}
I have allowed everything (for the time being) in filersver.conf :
# Define a section 'files'
# Adapt the allow/deny settings to your needs. Order
# for allow/deny does not matter, allow always takes precedence
# over deny
[snjh]
path /etc/puppet/manifests/files/snjh
allow *
# deny *.evil.example.com
# allow 192.168.0.0/24
And this is the error I am currently getting:
[root@VIRTCENT03:~] #puppetd --test
info: Caching catalog for virtcent03.summitnjhome.com
info: Applying configuration version '1297290431'
err: //basefiles/File[/etc/haha.txt]: Failed to retrieve current state
of resource: Could not retrieve information from source(s)
puppet://puppet/snjh/haha.txt at
/etc/puppet/manifests/classes/basefiles.pp:10
err: //basefiles/File[/etc/ldap.conf]: Failed to retrieve current
state of resource: Could not retrieve information from source(s)
puppet://puppet/snjh/ldap.conf at
/etc/puppet/manifests/classes/basefiles.pp:6
notice: Finished catalog run in 1.03 seconds
thanks for your help!
-------------------
thanks again!! I really have gotten amazingly valuable help from this
list and I genuinely appreciate your time!
