Re: [Puppet Users] OS specific configuration
Thanks Peter and Brendan, Indeed Facter is what I needed. I worked the case example from here http://docs.puppetlabs.com/learning/variables.html and it seems to be working smooth. Now I understand why it takes so much to run the agent: facter running before fetching catalogs. regards On Tuesday, March 19, 2013 4:53:35 PM UTC+2, Peter Meier wrote: -BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Does Facter need direct connection to clients ?

In your manifests you can then use these facts to influence the catalog that is produced for a client. ~pete -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v1.4.11 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://www.enigmail.net/ iEYEARECAAYFAlFIe+4ACgkQbwltcAfKi3/zkACfbw8W6VG+u8xvEJHtJbQTUrgF 08YAn2fovAp6+gghC7o/yzZuHAwA9O70 =9GL+ -END PGP SIGNATURE- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Puppet Users group.

[Puppet Users] OS specific configuration
Beginner question: I have a very simple configuration in site.pp for all agents. Is it possible to split actions based on operating system. I am interested into running certain commands only on Windows 7, some on Windows Xp and some on Mac OS X agents. Is there a simple way of achieving this while keeping a simple configuration ?

Re: [Puppet Users] OS specific configuration
Thanks Brendan, Does Facter need direct connection to clients ? If yes I cannot use it since my clients are behind firewalls/routers. Is there another way except Facter ?
