Hello

Can I use goss to validate few remote systems? Ie, i want to see if /var/tmp has the correct permission on few servers.

This is not supported by Goss, no.

You have a few options:

  1. Wrap Goss with something that runs it remotely on those servers
  2. Run goss serve on each server
  3. You could use the command feature of Goss, to have the command connect to remote server and do something, basically command is open ended.

Ultimately, Goss runs on the system under tests.. it executes commands or lookups locally.
