Thanks for the followup. This is still strange, however: ensuring 'present' should never modify a file or directory that is in fact initially present. It certainly should not convert a file to a directory, for if neither file nor directory nor symlink is initially present, then ensuring 'present' creates an empty *file*. In any case, I'm glad the issue is resolved. John -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
