I'm trying to remove a specific configuration value, "minimum_uid=1000",
from multiple lines in several files (currently 5 files) in /etc/pam.d/.
A typical line looks like this:
auth [success=1 default=ignore] pam_ldap.so use_first_pass
minimum_uid=1000
I've tried exec and sed, but I couldn't figure out the necessary escaping
to get the filename variable to parse (here I test with 'abc'):
define removeMinimumUID(){
exec { '${filename}':
command => "/usr/bin/sed -i \'s|abc|cab|g\' ${filename}",
onlyif => '/usr/bin/test -e ${filename}',
refresh => '/usr/bin/true',
provider => 'posix',
logoutput => on_failure,
}
}
RemoveMinimumUID { "/mnt/NY_Interactive/dev/peter/puppet/abc.txt": }
Error:
Executing: '/usr/bin/sed -i 's|abc|cab|g' '^[[0m
^[[mNotice:
/Stage[main]/Main/Removeminimumuid[/mnt/NY_Interactive/dev/peter/puppet/abc.txt]/Exec[${filename}]/returns:
/usr/bin/sed: no input files^[[0m
If I substitute the fully qualified filename with the filename variable on
the 'commmand' parameter line, the script runs fine.
Then I tried stdlibs' file_line but I couldn't figure out how to replace a
substring without identifying the entire replacement string:
file { '/home/peter/dev/puppet/abc.txt':
ensure => present,
}->
file_line { 'Append a line to /home/peter/dev/puppet/abc.txt':
path => '/home/peter/dev/puppet/abc.txt',
line => 'cab',
multiple => true,
match => "abc$",
}
I'm currently looking at augeas but no luck yet.
Suggestions?
thx...
