Puppet
======
Puppet, an automated administrative engine for your Linux and Unix systems, performs
administrative tasks (such as adding users, installing packages, and updating server
configurations) based on a centralized specification.
Documentation (and detailed installation instructions) can be found online at the
[Puppet Docs site](http://docs.puppetlabs.com).
Installation
------------
Generally, you need the following things installed:
* Ruby >= 1.8.1 (earlier releases might work but probably not)
* The Ruby OpenSSL library. For some reason, this often isn't included
in the main ruby distributions. You can test for it by running
'ruby -ropenssl -e "puts :yep"'. If that errors out, you're missing the
library.
If your distribution doesn't come with the necessary library (e.g., on Debian
and Ubuntu you need to install libopenssl-ruby), then you'll probably have to
compile Ruby yourself, since it's part of the standard library and not
available separately. You could probably just compile and install that one
library, though.
* Facter => 1.5.1 (available via your package manager or from the [Facter site](http://puppetlabs.com/projects/facter).
