Network configuration #11

Open booo opened 10 years ago

booo commented 10 years ago

Maybe we should add the network configuration to puppet? Important file is /etc/network/interfaces

pmelange commented 4 years ago

I think that the pre-puppet steps include setting up the /etc/network/interfaces (along with installing sudo, adding users, and adding those users to sudo). Hardcoding the IP address of a server in the puppet script is, I think, not very dynamic.

@rtznprmpftl what do you think?

booo commented 4 years ago

I'm not sure if we should configure everything concerning the network with puppet but thinks like the dns configuration and would be super nice. At the moment every vm uses e.g. another dns server.

pmelange commented 4 years ago

On the new VM's I have been setting up dns-nameserver in /etc/network/interfaces to 8.8.8.8 out of laziness. But I think that integrating this into puppet, using non-loggin dns servers, or potentially our own dns-server sounds like a good idea.
