Keeping a package up to date with puppet

Today I came into work with the following messages in my logwatch emails: Last Status:    WARNING: Your ClamAV installation is OUTDATED!    WARNING: Local version: 0.97.4 Recommended version: 0.97.5    DON'T PANIC! Read http://www.clamav.net/support/faq    main.cvd is up to date (version: 54, sigs: 1044387, f-level: 60, builder: sven)    daily.cld is up to date (version: 15042, sigs: 218148, f-level: 63, builder: mcichosz)    bytecode.cld is up to date (version: 185, sigs: 39, f-level: 63, builder: neo) Ah crap, time to touch all the boxes and make sure that the package is up to date right?

[Puppet] Error 400 on SERVER: No support for http method POST

I’ve been helping a buddy get his puppet master server setup and he recently ran into a rather interesting error. He had his master server setup and had added a few recent server builds to the mix all from the EPEL repository which installed the 2.6.x version of the client. When adding an older server, he got the following error message showing up in his logs: Error 400 on SERVER: No support for http method POST Doing a little googling, it turns out, this is not all that uncommon.

Puppet Presentation

For those looking for the slides from the puppet presentation that I gave last week, here they are. I’ll be working on getting a screen cast of the demo up in the next week or so. Too many other things distracting me at this moment.

Puppet Presentation

For those that haven’t seen my twitter feed… I’m going to be doing a presentation in the coming days for the local linux user group (CIALUG) on Puppet from Puppet Labs. Free pizza and some swag will be thrown around. The event is 100% free and should hopefully get you acquainted with all the cool stuff you can automate. Signup for your free ticket!

Pizza and Puppet

For those looking to see my handsome mug in person and listen to my beautiful tenor voice, I will be giving a Puppet demonstration at the January 2012 CIALUG meeting. Details on the event can be found on the events page of the cialug.org site. Puppetlabs has stepped up to offer sponsorship of the event so besides my insightful talk, there will be pizza and t-shirts that will be handed out while supplies last or whatever game we come up with to give them away.
