Hello, I work at a university and my colleagues and I are considering Puppet for installing and configuring our linux workstations. Being a university we have a great variety in users, some very adept at maintaining their own system and some not so much. Now we were wondering(and I can't find it in the documentation or on the intarwebz), can Puppet detect if a user has changed a *.conf file him(her)self and NOT do anything to that *.conf file? Since we have about 200 users now, which will probably grow to almost a 1000, we don't want to create different nodes which we than have to fill manually for the users who do know what they're doing. So my question is, can Puppet detect a user change on a file and in that case don't do anything, where it would normally replace the file?
