While working on a bunch of freebsd servers, one feature that I found lacking was the ability to nicely modify rc.conf variables (eg: item_flags="--something") for installed ports/applications and have a service do dependency checking so it restarts if it changes.
So a wrote a new puppet type (rcconf) to specifically handle this. It's got a single provider at the moment, which uses the sysrc script (available at http://druidbsd.sourceforge.net/) to do key/value modifications. BTW: it's a nice script I'd recommend freebsd admins get anyways. I've placed the code for the new type at: https://github.com/westr/westr-puppet-extras/tree/master/freebsd/rcconf If anyone wants to download and test, that would be appreciated. Please note this is definitely what I'd call beta software that's only been tested with Puppet v2.6.x Simple documentation is in the README file in the directory.
