I'm not sure, but you should look into Cron's 'target' parameter, which looks like it is intended for that purpose. But that begs the question: why is it important for the job to be recorded within /etc/ cron.d/? If that doesn't work then you always have the alternative of extending one of the built-in Cron providers to create one that puts files where you want. That shouldn't be hard, and it would make your manifests much more readable and maintainable. John -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
