Issue #1529 has been updated by sam.
Is it safe to assume that "better OS" is FreeBSD or OpenBSD? They're the only OSes you support (according to http://reductivelabs.com/trac/puppet/wiki/StablePlatforms ) that I haven't seen this problem on. (And that's only because I have no access to such systems.) I thought the whole point of Puppet was to fix the way we administer UNIX systems. Isn't part of fixing that, fixing the things that are broken? My bug report didn't include this detail and perhaps it'll change your mind. Both HP-UX and RHEL (I didn't test Solaris other than to see that it leaves the file behind,) try to RUN the cronjobs in the absent users crontab. This results in errors which result in emails which result in me wondering why puppet isn't smart about it. Is there another way to do this with puppet? If not, it seems like Puppets user managment is completely broken if that user should happen to have cron jobs. I can't say I follow your logic that it's an "OS problem" as it seems to me making OS problems go away is Puppet's entire raison d'etre. ---------------------------------------- Feature #1529: User provider should run 'crontab -r' before deleting a user http://reductivelabs.com/redmine/issues/show/1529 Author: sam Status: Rejected Priority: Normal Assigned to: luke Category: user Target version: Complexity: Unknown Affected version: 0.24.5 Keywords: HP-UX, Solaris and RHEL (and I'm told Debian) all fail to do this themselves when deleting a user. ---------------------------------------- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
