I've been trying to follow several threads around Google about Puppet and 
it's use (or non-use) of chkconfig on RH Linux.

What prompted me to do this is I noticed that Puppet is, correctly, 
repeatedly logging that it is changing a services from ON to OFF.  Funny, I 
thought I had disabled that with:

     service { "ip6tables":
                enable => false,
                ensure => stopped,
     }

Which certainly works, but it doesn't disable the service (ie: "chkconfig 
servicename off") -- it seems like there should be a provider that 
correctly integrates with the system "chkconfig" --  I realize that not all 
init scripts honor that, and for that folks can do whatever.  This is a 
basic functionality of RH Linux that enables, adds, deletes and otherwise 
alters the levels of basic services.   Seems reasonable that Puppet could 
properly interact with it?

We are up to Puppet 3.4.x now.   I'm simply asking here as I didn't seem to 
find a definitive answer - a lot of code snippets and suggestions, I just 
wonder if this is on-tap for improvement or if someone has another, perhaps 
clever approach to working with this?


Thanks!
