Hi, This might be possible, but probably will be more annoying than you want. If that's not enough warning, though... You can *probably* create a new type and set ':parent => :file' in that type. There used to be an option to retain most/all of the attributes (I used this for 'tidy' before I refactored it a long time ago), but I can't seem to find it now. That makes me even less confident that this will work well. Can you elaborate on what you're trying to do, and why? -- Luke Kanies | http://about.me/lak | http://puppetlabs.com/ | +1-615-594-8199 Join us at PuppetConf 2013, August 22-23 in San Francisco - http://bit.ly/pupconf13 -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Developers" group.
