Someone can correct me if I’m wrong, but I believe the Dashboard is just another possible destination for reports. It has no awareness of the Puppetmaster or it’s configuration (like `node_terminus`). The Puppetmaster, on the other hand, does know about the Dashboard (via the `reports` setting) and can send reports there, but not until after there’s something to report (which would be a Puppet run on that node). So I think what you’re seeing is expected behavior. The node should show up after its first Puppet run. If you want it to be more automatic, you may have to write something that queries LDAP and modifies the MySQL database. If you use Python, I’ve got a library that simplifies getting servers out of LDAP. Let me know if you’re interested. -- Rob McBroom <http://www.skurfer.com/> -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
