Puppet
|
|
======
|
|
|
|
Puppet, an automated administrative engine for your Linux and Unix systems, performs
|
|
administrative tasks (such as adding users, installing packages, and updating server
|
|
configurations) based on a centralized specification.
|
|
|
|
Documentation (and detailed install instructions) can be found
|
|
online at the `Puppet Wiki`_.

|
Installation
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
Generally, you need the following things installed:
|
|
|
|
* Ruby >= 1.8.1 (earlier releases might work but probably not)
|
|
|
|
* The Ruby OpenSSL library. For some reason, this often isn't included
|
|
in the main ruby distributions. You can test for it by running
|
|
'ruby -ropenssl -e "puts :yep"'. If that errors out, you're missing the
|
|
library.
|
|
|
|
If your distribution doesn't come with the necessary library (e.g., on Debian
|
|
and Ubuntu you need to install libopenssl-ruby), then you'll probably have to
|
|
compile Ruby yourself, since it's part of the standard library and not
|
|
available separately. You could probably just compile and install that one
|
|
library, though.
|
|
|
|
* The Ruby XMLRPC client and server libraries. For some reason, this often
|
|
isn't included in the main ruby distributions. You can test for it by
|
|
running 'ruby -rxmlrpc/client -e "puts :yep"'. If that errors out, you're missing
|
|
the library.
|
|
|
|
* Facter => 1.1.1
|
|
You can get this from your package management system or the `Facter site`_
