it seems quite simple to translate your kickstart. First start grouping all of your file permissions and content to logical units (e.g. audit, ssh, etc ) than for each section, try to implement the file security, and than just see if your configuration files are dynamic, or they could always be fixed for the same host type/ os version etc.
if they are dynamic, try to think about templates and facts, if not, just keep one copy of the file per os/host type whatever and let puppet copy it for you. Just give it a try.... :) Ohad On Tue, Nov 11, 2008 at 1:33 PM, Aaron Lippold <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hello Puppet List, > > I was hoping to get some help starting looking at moving my current > kickstart baseline to using puppet.
