Make sure you get the official documention from Ahttp://docs.puppetlabs.com/. I haven't really seen any books or anything else that is as complete and accurate, especially the reference and learning puppet books.

I find the "puppet resource" command is one of the most useful. You can use it to generate a script for a given configuration and use it to duplicate it elsewhere.

Submission + - TSA eliminates all invasive X-ray machines

dsinc writes: The Transportation Security Administration announced it has finished removing from all airports the X-ray technology that produced graphic and controversial images of passengers passing through security screening checkpoints.
The machines, which the TSA first deployed in 2008, provoked public outrage as the technology, better able than traditional X-rays to detect hidden contraband, also created images that appeared as if they were "virtual nudes." Critics called this an invasion of privacy and questioned whether the scanning devices truly lacked the ability to save the images, as the TSA claimed.

Comment Perfect out of towner trap... (Score 1) 507

Coming into Orlando, I picked up my crappy Dodge rental and took the road to I95 and the east coast, which was a toll road. I saw the signs for the toll booth - 1 mile and expected the usual drill. Come 1 mile and where is the toll booth? It turns it you had to have EXITED the highway a ways back to go through the tollbooth. Anyone who actually STAYS on the highway without one of those easy pass things gets a ticket. I guarantee that will trap 90% of people out of town. Nice racket if you can pull if off...

I always buy my computers with Linux preloaded. Besides better supporting open source and denying Microsoft from counting it as a "sale", more important is that you know all of your shit is going to work with Linux. It doesn't really matter what distro comes with it. just that all of you hardware works. I just picked up a really sweet Lenovo from Linucity.
