Can anyone recommend a quick and dirty way to grep through puppet/cache/reports (or whatever $reportdir reports to) to find failures or missing reports? I'm looking for a temporary solution before I commit to setting up reporting software. thx, -peter -- You received this message because you

Thank you, guys. Unfortunately it still doesn't produce anything. I guess I'll have to figure out the author's code. @Peter Kristolaitis, thank you for bringing to my attention that the "sftp" title will probably not be a key, or class name. @amateo, I'm not yet familiar with roles/profiles but

Well...I had never called 'downcase' myself but it appears to be a function defined in in the puppet stdlib module. But I seem to have narrowed down the cause to having an unused 'classes:' line in my hostname.domain.com.yaml when there is also a 'classes:' line in my common.yaml It seems as

[Puppet Users] hiera hierarchy by network

This network lookup is simple and works well...but only on some clients because they have more than one network interface: hiera.yaml: --- :hierarchy: - "%{::trusted.certname}" - "%{::network}" - common It fails on some machines because they have docker virtual interfaces and instead

Garrett, I'd like to use a puppet module to use an indempotent approach to establishing these config files...but I need to fix *just* these specific settings instead of learning pam well enough to configure a pam module. For lack of expertise, I'm leaning heavily on the default config files to
