Ivstan, there is also a *Learning VM* you can download, install into your VMware or Oracle VirtualBox framework and run to learn a lot. It is VERY useful.
However, I would say that right after you complete *all of those modules in a single sweep* (go back over them as you need them) *it makes sense to also be ready with your own VM-setup* to start writing even the most basic modules. That's where I am stuck. That is why I am going to go back to the Learning VM and re-educate myself on Puppet using the Learning VM. -------------------------- Warron French On Mon, Feb 22, 2016 at 5:50 PM, Scott Walker <[email protected]> wrote: > Have you tried that tutorials, they are very well done and do take you > step by step. > > On Monday, 22 February 2016 10:23:16 UTC-5, Istvan Kassai wrote: >> >> Hi folks, >> >> In the last half year I tried to learn puppet (for about 4-5 times) but >> haven't got so far. >> Yesterday I decided I won't give up.
