Re: PUPPET - group IDS

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]



I'm not familiar with the syntax you're using but the below worked for me using 'puppet apply grp-usr.pp' on my laptop where grp-usr.pp contained:

group { 'poc':
        ensure  =>      present,
        gid     =>      '1002'
}

user { 'one':
        ensure  =>      present,
        uid     =>      '1005',
        gid     =>      '1002',
        require =>      Group['poc']
}

user { 'two':
        ensure  =>      present,
        uid     =>      '1006',
        gid     =>      '1002',
        require =>      Group['poc']
}

The run produced no errors and

grep poc /etc/group

produced:

poc:x:1002:

with

egrep 'one|two' /etc/passwd

producing (with a couple of extraneous entries):

nobody:x:65534:65534:nobody:/nonexistent:/usr/sbin/nologin
whoopsie:x:109:116::/nonexistent:/bin/false
two:x:1006:1002::/home/two:
one:x:1005:1002::/home/one:

I haven't used the "allowdupe" option, so I don't know if it works for 
GIDs, but supposedly this works:

   user { 'user1':
     uid => 1000, gid => 2000, ...,
     allowdupe => true
   }

   user { 'user2':
     uid => 1001, gid => 2000, ...,
     allowdupe => true
   }

In YAML-ese, I guess you'd just add

accounts::users:
   user1:
     allowdupe: 'true'
