Hey, I'm totally new to Puppet and haven't had a chance to configure my own packages before. Can anyone give me some pointers on how to get this done? IE - are there some good tutorials, etc. that will guide me? I've been hunting around but I couldn't find a whole lot. <br />
<br />
Basically what I have is a small bin file that installs an agent on a server and I want to 'puppet-ize' this so that I can install it with the same command line options as if I was running it on the machine. <br />
<br />
Any ideas?

The variety of Linux distributions creates myriad issues relating to configuration and operations when computers are networked, not the least of which is the use of various network management applications, some of which are included with specific distributions, while others are standalone applications.
