group/host specific :info files

Reported by: [email protected]… Owned by: desai
Priority: minor Milestone: Bcfg2 0.9.5 Release
Component: bcfg2-server Version:

Description

Contents of configuration files can be controlled per group/host, but not the metadata associated with them, e.g. user/group/mode/mtime.

Different config files often have different owners (like apache vs httpd or exim vs mail), so it would be nice to allow different file metadata for different groups/hosts.

  • Status changed from new to closed
  • Resolution set to fixed
  • Milestone set to Bcfg2 0.9.5 Release

This has been added by adding a new metadata file type in Cfg repositories: info.xml. These files can contain multiple sets of permissions in a similar format to Rules or Pkgmgr files. For example, 

<FileInfo>
  <Group name='webserver'>
    <Info owner='root' group='root' perms='0652'/>
  </Group>
  <Info owner='root' group='root' perms='0651'/>
</FileInfo>

will set perms 0652 on webservers, and 0651 on all other clients. This has been included in 0.9.5pre3.
