Also, as of 12.4.0, remote_file can use UNC paths!

Hi Tensibai,

Thanks. I will give that a try as soon as I figure out another problem I just started having (with Chef and CENTOS).

I don't know for the
slunk cookbook itself (didn't use it) but assuming it
takes advantage of remote_file resource I'm sure yes as
my sole contribution to chef was on the file:// url code and
I did test for this kind of path for Unix and Windows ;)

T.l.;d.r Should be yes but may
work with a UNC path file://server/share/file.rpm too if the
share is browsable as anonymous (everyone read permission in
share and NTFS acl)

Anyway, the question I have is whether this can support
using file:// type URLs for the location of the Splunk
server and Splunk forwarder RPMs?
