[Puppet Users] Import Class vs Require vs Inherits Options

Hi everyone, I am just rediting an old post because don't see any answer regarding this matter: -- Forwarded message -- From: Arnau Bria Date: Jun 30 2009, 5:01 pm Subject: import Class vs require vs inherits To: Puppet Users Hi all, I have a couple of "basic" questions on

[Puppet Users] Re: params.pp class with parametrized class support?

Show off! ;) Great example thanks. I noticed you fully qualify variables within the very class they were assigned. Is that best practice now? I've created a simple apache module using your openssh module as inspiration. I still need to modify params.pp to check for globally defined vars. In the c

Re: [Puppet Users] Import Class vs Require vs Inherits Options

Re: [Puppet Users] more fun and games...(exported resources)

That was my first thought Felix. I ran the command line find . -name '*.pp' -print -exec grep support {} \; just to find out where there might be a duplicate and came up dry. My templates.pp file is the only place that exists. I've managed to kludge a fix for it though by putting an "if" statem

Re: [Puppet Users] more fun and games...(exported resources)

I guess my kludge didn't work after all. The issue is back. I'm beginning to think that perhaps there is something bad about exporting nagios_contact resources. :-/ On Wed, Jan 18, 2012 at 9:13 AM, Peter Berghold wrote: > That was my first thought Felix. I ran the command line > > find . -nam
