Re: [Puppet Users] elegant way to hash a line in a file, if present

Hi Tom, Thanks for the reply. I hadn't used the 'file' method as I didn't want to create the file if it wasn't there already, only modify it. Sorry I should have said that in my original post. It was this requirement that made it less than straightforward. Cheers, Cam On Tuesday, 30 June 201
