Yup certname = puppet on both masters (primary/secondary). Yea if you are setting up a fresh server I usually clear all the pem files under /var/lib/puppet/ssl then restart puppetmasterd so it generated a fresh new cert. I then rsync the tree over to the secondary.
I have most of this in a dumb script, but hopefully you get the idea. For your fileserver question.. I don't believe thats needed, at least I dont have anything in there for that. I only have [configs] [plugins] [facts]. I think the new version of 25+ now uses auth.conf for access the certificate directories. -Chris On Wed, May 19, 2010 at 12:30 PM, Matt Juszczak <m...@atopia.net> wrote: > Makes sense. > > So that's just a certname setting inside the [puppetmasterd] config section > of /etc/puppet.conf on the master, correct?
