[Puppet Users] Join us for a Design Jam on Testing Puppet Changes

[Melinda Campbell]

WHAT IS A DESIGN JAM?
A hands-on workshop in which we collaborate on solving an Operations 
challenge. Using a variety of brainstorming activities, we’ll come up with 
a pile of ideas and spend time filtering and refining these ideas to find a 
few viable solutions. 

WHY?
We are building our products for you, you are the experts! Contributing to 
our design process is one way to have influence over what we build and how 
we build it.

WHAT’S THE TOPIC
For this first session we will be addressing the problem of testing changes 
made to your Puppet manifest. How might sysadmins verify that these changes 
had the expected results? 
If you have thoughts about this or have run up against this challenge, 
please join us! 

WHEN: Thursday 5/23 @ 12pm PST.
This will be an hour-long online session with product owner Carl Caum and 
UX designer Melinda Campbell. 

HOW: Google Hangout 

SIGN UP: http://bit.ly/12vjGwD
This session is limited to 8 people. 

Looking forward to it!
Melinda  Carl

[Puppet Users] join()

[Martijn Grendelman]

Hi puppeteers,

In the function reference [1], I found a 'split' function for splitting a
string into an array, but not a 'join' function for joining an array into
a string. Why not? :)

I have a list of IP addresses, that I use with ssh_authorized_key to
restrict access. The list is now simply a comma-separated list in a
string, but if I want to use the list for other purposes as well, I
thought it might be better to store the list as an array and join() it
with the proper glue whenever needed.

What do you recommend?

Best regards,
Martijn.

- you can write a join function and contribute it to the project, they are very 
easy to write
- you can use something like $ips = inline_template(%= 
ipaddress.split(/,/).join(' ') %)
  or use regex or something like that.

I have added this function to my 'common' module:

puppet$ cat modules/common/lib/puppet/parser/functions/join.rb
module Puppet::Parser::Functions
newfunction(:join, :type = :rvalue) do |args|
args[0].join(args[1])
end
end

I didn't come up with it myself though, I found it on the web somewhere.
Looking at the source for the 'split' function, I guess the function needs
documentation and maybe some error checking, like the number of arguments.

How would I contribute something like this to the project?

 - you can use something like $ips = inline_template(%= 
 ipaddress.split(/,/).join(' ') %)
   or use regex or something like that.

Thanks!

Re: [Puppet Users] join()

[Dan Bode]

Hi Martijn,

here is an outline of the steps required for submitting a patch.

http://projects.reductivelabs.com/projects/puppet/wiki/Development_Development_Lifecycle

an overview would be:

* create a ticket (if one does not already exist)
* fork reductivelabs puppet repo from github.com/reductivelabs
* create local branch
* create unit tests
* commit changes
* push to remote repo

feel free to ask any further questions related to the process here, #puppet
, or on puppet-...@googlegroups.com

-Dan

Hi,

Thanks for this manifest, I'm going to use this.

One quick question, What did you have in your likewise.preseed file as
debconf-show is telling me there are no preseedable options for it?

Thanks.

Tom

[Puppet Users] Join AD using Likewise

[Taylor]

Hi All,

I'm reading the docs and various references available for Puppet but
can't seem to find a better way of accomplishing my goal of binding my
Linux Servers to Active Directory. (Please don't berate me for the
premise.)

Quick Background:
I've become enamored with likewise-open as a method and tool for
binding linux machines to AD. It's clean and simple. (http://
anothersysadmin.wordpress.com/2008/04/06/howto-active-directory-
authentication-in-ubuntu-804/)

But I can't get past the command line requirement and being forced to
run an exec that stores a domain admin password in a text file. Here
is my recipe so far:

class likewise{
file { likewise-preseed:
path = /var/cache/debconf/likewise.preseed
owner = root,
group = root,
mode = 400,
source = puppet:///likewise/likewise.preseed
}

package{
likewise-open: ensure = latest,
responsefile = /var/cache/debconf/likewise.preseed,
require = file[likewise-preseed]
}

exec{ domainjoin-cli join at.sfsu.edu svc_bind PASSWORD:
path =  [/usr/bin, /usr/sbin]
}

That recipe is obviously not complete, but I'm hung at the exec
command. It doesn't seem right to me from a philosophical perspective.
There should be a better way that doesn't require me to store a
password in the recipe. Does anyone have a suggestion of a better way
of doing this? I'm sure I'm missing something obvious.

I did take a look at the NSSwitch LDAP recipe (http://
reductivelabs.com/trac/puppet/wiki/Recipes/LDAPClientNSSwitch) and
that might accomplish the same goal but seems more complex and
unnecessary when an elegant solution such as likewise-open exists.

Thanks for your thoughts.

Re: [Puppet Users] Join AD using Likewise

[Carl.caum]

I think we all end up using an exec somewhere to bind to AD. I  
personally use samba with LDAP  and kerberos instead of Likewise, but  
to each their own. What you can do is create a domain account that  
only has permissions to create and destroy computer objects in a  
specific OU in AD. I have one called joindomain (simple enough, huh?).  
I can be less protective about this user's password since if it gets  
out, no real damage can be done. I'm interested in seeing how others  
deal with this.

You don't need to be a domain admin to bind to AD- so the answer is
create an account that can only bind machines to AD.

[Puppet Users] Join active directory domain on Mac OS X Leopard

[Carl Caum]

Does anyone know how to go about joining Mac OS X Leopard to an Active  
Directory domain with puppet?
Primarily it needs to be broken down in to doing LDAP authentication  
with a few attribute mappings and using kerberos for the password  
authentication.
