Tripwire Puppet module objective is to automate the process of installing and connecting a Tripwire client to the Tripwire master
Tripwire module was designed to be applied to Puppets base_linux_install manifest, this was simply done with an include tripwire in the base_linux class. However you can load the module into your modulepath and declare the class through Puppet web console.Goto the Puppet console, select the Tripwire profile class, apply it to any RedHat Linux server have Tripwire installed and communicating with a Tripwire master
To retrieve the public module code , please clone git clone git@github.com:autostructure/tripwire.git The private data will need to be designed accordingly for your Organizations purpose
Tripwire application monitors pre defined directories/files, this monitors the files / directories for any changes, this will help an organization determine if these changes were scheduled or unscheduled

Here, list the classes, types, providers, facts, etc contained in your module. This section should include all of the under-the-hood workings of your module so people know what the module is touching on their system but don't need to mess with things. (We are working on automating this section!)
This is where you list OS compatibility, version compatibility, etc.
Since your module is awesome, other users will want to play with it. Let them know what the ground rules for contributing are.
