#3228 Added /etc/resolv.conf and permission checking for /var/run/screen to puppet
Closed: Fixed Opened by crothers.

Reopen Issue

= problem =
A grep through the existing puppet tree showed nothing for /etc/resolv.conf management. I have added this with a simple template, I decided against using a template because it would only be expensive in compiling the manifest. If there is something I don't know and we require different nameservers or similar, I'm more than happy to make it a template and pull some data from facter.

= analysis =
A lack of control over /etc/resolv.conf

= enhancement recommendation =
Implement the patch, the patch can then be used with:
include network::resolv

Patch for the existing puppet tree
scrothers.patch

we manage resolv.conf in global, now

file { "/etc/resolv.conf":
source => [
"puppet:///config/system/resolv.conf/resolv.conf.$hostname",
"puppet:///config/system/resolv.conf/resolv.conf.$pup_datacenter",
"puppet:///config/system/resolv.conf/resolv.conf.$datacenter"
],
}

not sure I understand the screen patch - what is it fixing?

The screen change is to simply fix a common issue where the permissions are incorrect and prevent screens from being made for non-root users.

I utilize it in my puppet modules simply as a safety net, that way I don't get issues later for whatever reason.
