I spent some days testing puppet on a clone of a real windows 2008 R2 file
server.
While puppet seems very interesting, I’m afraid it is not mature enough to
be used with Windows clients?
The main problem is that the files served by my file server were created by
french people: their names contain lot of accentuated characters.
First, I had to do chcp 1252 before I could use puppet. The default code
page is 850. Not really friendly. But manageable.
The second problem I’m facing now, appears while using simple manifests
like the following one:
acl { 'd:/Data/Directory':
permissions =>
...
}
It works fine, and is faster than I would have expected, even when the
permissions are to be applied to a lot of files.
But as soon as there is any file whose path contain special character (like
é or è) in the target directory (d:/Data/Directory), the puppet apply
command fails.
Is there any solution to this problem, or should I forget puppet for some
time?
Thanks for any advice
