Yes, I agree. If it were something as simple as pulling in a binary to the right location and setting up a script in /etc/init.d to let services/xinitd run it.
But I am looking for something that might pull in a tar-ball, unroll it, compile it (maybe) and set up the appripriate stuff. I can (and will) try tinkering up something, but a working example would be very nice. ----- Christopher Wood <christopher_w...@pobox.com> wrote: > On Tue, Oct 18, 2011 at 08:21:34PM +0000, Dan White wrote: > > Are there any exapmples out there that show an intelligent way to do this ? > > http://docs.puppetlabs.com/references/stable/type.html#service > > That makes it sound like as long as you have the right init script (or > platform-specific variant thereof) installed, puppet will do the right thing. > > > My searches are not turning up anything useful “Sometimes I think the surest sign that intelligent life exists elsewhere in the universe is that none of it has tried to contact us.” Bill Waterson (Calvin & Hobbes) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
