Not sure, if you try to do crontab and cron isnt there at puppet startup time it blows up as soon as the catelog start, it doesnt wait for you to package install cron via requires or anything like that. That's probably most of the pain. Same with trying to use packages with the gem provider - you cant install via yum rubygems and in the same run expect to use the gem provider afterward big pita -- R.I.Pienaar -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Developers" group.
