[Puppet Users] Managing core files using coreadm (Solaris + Puppet)

2009-05-27 Thread Greg
Hi all, I have an interesting one - Solaris uses a lot of commands to configure specific items. A simple example is coreadm. In this example: # coreadm -p "/var/core/core_%n_%f_%u_%g_%t_%p" will set the directory and filename to dump core files (with some expansion). The question is - how t

How do you manage permissions on mount points? Maybe I am missing something obvious here, but I can't figure out a non-convoluted way to do this. I want the actual mount point to have 755 permissions, but, once mounted, the filesystem should have 1777 permissions (ie., /tmp). I want different p
