The only error i get when running 'puppetmasterd --debug --no-daemonize' is: warning: Retrying LDAP connection err: LDAP Search failed With (on puppetmasterd): 'ldapsearch -x -D "cn=puppetadmin,ou=ldapaccounts,ou=rest,ou=of,o=it,c=org" -W "(&(objectClass=puppetClient)(cn=clientfqdn))" ou=puppet,ou=rest,ou=of,o=it,c=org' i get the correct response. > Your LDAP authentication depends upon how your LDAP server is setup. For most things i use sasl-gssapi but i think puppet will just do simple bind, right ?
