Hi there, I'm using the puppet:/// protocol with the triple slash as described in the advanced puppet recipe because I want to keep all my config files on the puppet server that serves the puppet nodes and such: http://reductivelabs.com/trac/puppet/wiki/AdvancedPuppetRecipe
In terms of connecting to the fileserver to describe the file and diff the checksums, there are no problems and it will connect to the server that the node is getting its configuration from. It even shows the correct diff that will be applied to the file if there are changes. However, when it comes time to actually retrieve the file, the puppet client seems to want the file from the server "puppet", instead of the /etc/puppet/puppet.conf-specified server. It is as if I had written "puppet://puppet/module/myfile.conf" - but the problem only applies in terms of file retrieval, not for diffing the file. My current workaround is to just change /etc/hosts so that puppet points to my puppet server, but doing this makes my clusters less portable, and I'm pretty sure the point of the puppet:/// protocol was to avoid this problem. >From what I've searched online and in the group, someone had a similar problem and workarounds at (http://osdir.com/ml/sysutils.puppet.user/ 2006-09/msg00279.html), but I believe that was because he was using "puppet://puppet/module/file", with only 2 slashes. This is also not a certificate/signing problem, which came up frequently when i searched for the error "could not find server puppet". Any suggestions or ideas (possibly for what I may be doing wrong) would be greatly appreciated!
