I have always found PuppetLabs's Puppet Language Guide to be a great resource. It was easy to find on PL's (then called "Reductive Labs") web site when I first started with Puppet about three years ago, and it still is. It covers this point, among many others. There are also some good books about Puppet available. Additionally, there are a number of third-party tutorials spread around the web, of varying quality and thoroughness. Is there something else specific that you would have liked to see? John -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
