Hi folks,
I'm about to propose to my current company that we use puppet to manage
releases of home grown software. The environment is a mix of Solaris
8/9/10 and RHEL 56.
I've got a handle on how to create recipes to release software into the
RHEL environment. The unknown for me is how to

Almost as soon as I hit send I thought of something.
I added
include scripts/*

Hi folks,

After runing the gem install I tried running puppetd and was told not

I thought I read in some documentation somewhere that for array variables
you had a means of setting up a conditional for last element.
For instance

$hosts=['hosta','hostb','hostc']
file { some-config :

. :)

Once again I'm experimenting with the Gentoo Linux distro and trying to get
puppet to work with it. I'm starting to think it is a lost cause.
In my puppet setup I have a list of packages that are built on any system
that I support regardless of the systems final use. These include tmpwatch,
and it is not generating any spew for me to look at.
I'll know in a while if it worked.
