Hi Cory,
Running the puppet client with --debug will show the underlying system calls
that are failing. It looks like the package manager cannot find any packages
called motd (I dont think there is a package called motd, this is a login
function).
Also, a tip. You can use the "puppet" command to test manifests without
having to worry about running a client/server.
just run
>puppet MANIFEST.pp
for this to work, you need to include the class in the pp file.
regards,
Dan
