I am trying to make use of a custom type mentioned in the wiki page
http://projects.puppetlabs.com/projects/1/wiki/Sysctl_Patterns
I created the module sysctl, inserted the custom type in there and
created a simple manifest to make use of the introduced type.
I add the module to a client and start a puppetrun there.
I see the custom type being synced, but after that I get the error,
that the used type is unknown:
puppetd -t

My manifest is this:cat manifests/init.pp
class sysctl {
sysctl {
"kernel.shmni": val => "4096";
}
}
I am using puppet version 2.6.7 on master and client
It seems to me, that the path where de custom type has been placed
isn't checked, then again, the used type might just not work on my
version of puppet.
I checked the docs on "custom types" and "plugins in modules" , but
i'm a bit at a loss right now.
can someone point me in the right direction?
thx
John
