root@client:~# puppetd --server client.mydomain.com --waitforcert 60 --test err: Could not retrieve catalog from remote server: Connection refused - connect(2) warning: Not using cache on failed catalog err: Could not retrieve catalog; skipping run I don't understand the error all other clients can contact the puppet server just fine. The client is Ubuntu 10.04. Like I said the client is behind a nat firewall, can that be the problem? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
