I've been fighting with this same issue in version 2.6.0. Setting "client =
false" in puppet.conf doesn't seem to do anything. Rather than modifying
the init script for puppet like Christian, I updated /etc/sysconfig/puppet
with the following line:
PUPPET_EXTRA_OPTS=--no-client
That's solved my problem of host automatically updating themselves every
runinterval seconds. Now they only update when I issue a "puppet kick" call
from the puppetmaster.
