Also note that under the puppet paradigm, a "service" is not something
reachable via network (as in "services provided through xinetd"), but
can be any process that is maintained by use of an init-script.

What happens when you do:
$ puppet resource service xinetd
That should hopefully give you the output for that.
Resource isn't, say, a system profiling tool. It's more an interface to
resources you have. And while some will give you all the information you
may want ('user' for example), not all of them can.

[Puppet Users] is there a definition of the abstract service type
Hullo I'm a puppet neophyte and I'm a bit confused about the service type. I've just run up the learning vm and when I try: puppet resource service I don't seem to get any of the services controlled by xinetd, nor even xinetd itself. This doesn't sound right to me as it will cause future issues if services are implemented in different ways on different o/s types. Is there a canonical definition of the service type abstraction, or is the definition just how the implementation behaves? cheers Tim -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
