[Puppet Users] Virtual resources stopped working...

Since I moved our pre-prod puppet master to RHEL6, things have broken. This is how: We have two classes, 'users' (which defines all our users as virtual) and 'users::sys' which realises the systems-admin users. I then have (this is simplified to show the problem): node basenode { include use

I see what you are saying. We are going with a plan to authorize an opening in the firewall for just the instance of the kick. As any changes to our production environment require a change request one would have to be created to allow the ports to be opened just for the kick. On Tue, Feb 15, 2011

You could use the resource description tool, in a generate call in the appropriate resource, to have puppet ruun the process of rebuilding the appropriate manifest content on demand. (Probably needs a little scripting wrapped around it to get the content in the right format.) For the file content

[Puppet Users] Re: Virtual Resources realization problems

Heed Felix's advice. In particular, do not captialize class, definition, or resource type names when you *declare* a resource, including a virtual one. Do capitalize where you *realize* a virtual resource. Also, On Feb 16, 5:12 pm, Forrie wrote: > class dce { >   define nfsmount(options} { >

The exact file extension is /modules/pam/files/CentOS/login (or $ssh), and both the login and sshd files are there . I was considering changing CentOS to Ubuntu to see if this made a difference, but in the pam module's init.pp file, it has the $operatingsystem variable where I believe the CentO

What component do you think I'm missing? I checked the error again and this is what I've done: puppetmasterd --verbose --no-daemonize (when I run this command, it first says that it can't create a PID file, so I have to remove the old puppetmasterd.pid file, rerun the command, and then it runs.

I have a central server, that happens to be the puppetmaster, that has various users on it. I would like to copy out their information (name, uid, password, .bashrc, etc) to all my other hosts, but I want to let the users change their stuff on that host, so I don't want to just stick it in puppet
