I think the puppetmaster will allow it, but it's usually not recommended. > In other words : what should I do to create a hundred nodes with the > same certificate ? You should just be able to get the certificate signed on one of them and then put the whole /var/lib/puppet directory in the image. Remember that with this method, any computer that can access the PXE server can pretend to be one of those servers to the puppetmaster. It'll also be annoying to set different configurations on those servers because they have the same cert name. I don't know if this is a problem. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
