Title: Message Title

Gene Liverman created an issue   Puppet / PUP-10498 host resources don't support stock Linux configurations Issue Type: Bug Assignee: Unassigned Created: 2020/05/11 5:53 AM Priority: Normal Reporter: Gene Liverman For all version of Puppet that I am aware of, the host resource type does not support a stock configuration of Linux. In particular, both RHEL/CentOS and Debian/Ubuntu flavors come with IPv6 enabled by default. This results in two stock entries in /etc/hosts that resemble this: 127.0.0.1 localhost ::1 localhost ip6-localhost ip6-loopback As it stands today, running "puppet resource host" will not return both of these entries - it will only return the IPv4 variant. Additionally, it seems to be impossible to precisely recreate this pair of entries, or any other entry for which a name has both an IPv4 and an IPv6 address.
