Important note I forgot: I'm definitely not talking about puppet.com documentation. Its very detailed and has helped me get out of jams along the way. But there are like 1000 blogs and I got stuck in the ... reasonable-facsimile-of-real-instructions negative feedback loop. On Tuesday, 15 June 2

Thank you, I saw those PACKT books and had bad experiences with their programming books. I'll give their puppet one a try! On Wednesday, 16 June 2021 at 10:35:50 UTC-4 jochen@gmail.com wrote: > I am going well with Debian, but that’s what I usually use. > > I guess I had a hard time running

I am going well with Debian, but that’s what I usually use. I guess I had a hard time running Puppet against Windows only… although it is possible, I think the worlds are so apart that there are some rough edges… you probably are more easy when you know your Puppet from unix and then start to c
