Great suggestion thanks; we have a slightly different way to generate the list of servers, but the concept is sound. Just a couple of notes for anyone who might try this in Debian, with 0.25: 1) The "puppetmasterd --compile" has to run as the puppet user. It's something to do with how all the defaults use "service" instead of "puppet" to represent the user/group that the process is actually running as. I use "su", having changed the shell for the puppet user to /bin/bash. 2) You'll need the JSON library package (libjson-ruby1.8 in etch at least). -- Craig Miskell Senior Systems Administrator Opus International Consultants Government's view of the economy should be summed up in a few short phrases: If it moves, tax it.
