You can put a requires in the file resource
require => Package["packagename"]
then it will install the package first then put in the symlink.

Thanks for the reply, from what you said it might be better for me to go

It fails because the yum repository by default is requiring the package be
signed. If you update the repo configuration, with the option below, you
would not need to do a --nogpgcheck with the package install. The only other
time that this option would not work is if you are doing a localinstall vi

Thats because puppet isn't a tool meant to build applications from source. You
could do it but its one of those things where it doesn't make sense.

No that is one of the ways to do it. The alternative is to write your own

If facter switched to using uname on unix/linux, it would be a problem. If I

I think you missed the point I was trying to convey. Anyway you want to try to

So if libc defines a hostname like below, then facter will be t

What you are looking for is a loop which does not exist in puppet, except

I've never tried it but I've speculated it could be possible to create a

There was a big change from 0.25 to 2.6 and I believe you need to upgrade
both client and server from what I remember. The best way to do is get a
remote execution daemon like func and you could issue a command to all
servers like "yum upgrade puppet".

I think there is some confusion, where is the ntp manifest located? Is it in
its own module or the site manifest directory. If its the latter, then you
need to import that manifest into the site manifest. If its a module, then
you still need to do the import for the module.
Try updating your site
That process still works, but you need to have a CA puppet master, a non-CA
puppet master, and one client for that to work. The client needs to be told
where the CA server is though which in that link tells you how to update the

I use this process and it works great, there was some tw

You can look into creating custom functions in ruby to pull back the
data. Additionally you could create the manifests in ruby dsl.

One more thing to keep in mind, the more templates you are compiling

The best I was able to do is when you generate the certificate for the
puppet master you use dns alt names flag to specify the alternative
names for the puppet master. That is the only way I was able to make
it work in my environment with the F5.

I suspect the openssl might be the issue on the client.

Without fully understanding your modules and how they interact you can

You should be versioning all your puppet manifests and modules. You
can then write a simple script to pull down the changes. Once you have
the files you can have the manfiests and modules folder look exactly
like the puppet master and then type something like this to test.

You would not need to pull the entire SVN, puppet modules, to test out
one specific module. The only time you would need to have multiple
modules is if there is inter-dependency.
