Hi all I'm trying to set up a separate puppet master and client on EC2. I've used two instances of CentOS5.4 with nothing other than the base install and have installed puppet via the ruby gems. Puppet is at 2.6.4 on both machines.
I've been following the guide to get a basic configuration working (http://docs.puppetlabs.com/guides/configuring.html) with a little tweak because I'm on EC2, but I'm not able to authenticate my agent with the master. Here's the steps I'm taking, and the output: [agent]# echo "foobar" > /etc/puppet/certname [agent]# puppet agent --certname=$(cat /etc/puppet/certname) --server puppet.mydomain.org --waitforcert 30 --test info: Creating a new SSL key for webserver warning: peer certificate won't be verified in this SSL session info: Caching certificate for ca warning: peer certificate won't be verified in this SSL session warning: peer certificate won't be verified in this SSL session info: Creating a new SSL certificate request for webserver info: Certificate Request fingerprint (md5): SO:ME:RA:ND:OM:NU:MB:ER:SS warning: peer certificate won't be verified in this SSL session warning: peer certificate won't be verified in this SSL session warning: peer certificate won't be verified in this SSL session warning: peer certificate won't be verified in this SSL session Then on the master: [master]# puppet cert --list foobar [master]# puppet cert --sign foobar notice: Signed certificate request for foobar notice: Removing file Puppet::SSL::CertificateRequest foobar at '/etc/ puppet/ssl/ca/requests/foobar.pem' Then back on the client: info: Caching certificate for foobar err: Could not retrieve catalog from remote server: hostname not match with the server certificate warning: Not using cache on failed catalog err: Could not retrieve catalog; skipping run I'm not entirely sure what I'm not doing right. The docs don't provide much help for this error, nor does the troubleshooting section. I'm rather stuck! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group. To post to this group, send email to puppet-users@googlegroups.com.
