Ken, Thanks for your help. Unfortunately, I can't tell you much about the setup. I've only ever done this with passenger as well, and the person who did set it up has left the company. I wonder if the performance of the puppet master in 2.7.3 has increased to the point where passenger/mongrel aren't really required anymore? I'm running puppet in standalone debug right now, and forced 40 or so clients to reconnect, and the load avg on the server never went above about 1. Maybe we can throw mongrel away. We have about 500 servers. Doug -- 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.
