Now that is curious. What I find really strange about this - is that the checksums are the same between _some_ of the various files. Original and resultant checksums as well ...
But this isn't consistent: > Wed Oct 26 04:02:35 +0000 2011 > /File[/usr/lib64/nagios/plugins/check_clamd]/content (notice): content > changed '{md5}59aae3c31ce1b664af6269e01a321688' to > '{md5}b17975a3843ca819c0e22df11b8626c5' > Wed Oct 26 04:02:36 +0000 2011 > /File[/usr/lib64/nagios/plugins/check_ftp]/content (notice): content changed > '{md5}59aae3c31ce1b664af6269e01a321688' to > '{md5}b17975a3843ca819c0e22df11b8626c5' > Wed Oct 26 04:02:37 +0000 2011 > /File[/usr/lib64/nagios/plugins/check_http]/content (notice): content changed > '{md5}de26ab80a3fad32aada72004444221cc' to > '{md5}161aae413e174adbe4bfe2baec5ad366' > Wed Oct 26 04:02:37 +0000 2011 > /File[/usr/lib64/nagios/plugins/check_imap]/content (notice): content changed > '{md5}59aae3c31ce1b664af6269e01a321688' to > '{md5}b17975a3843ca819c0e22df11b8626c5' Notice check_http is different? Similar checksums would imply the files are the same. What is the real md5sum of say these 4 files on the source and destination? Can we say an 'ls -l' of those files just for curiosity sake? Source and destination? I don't know what this is - just looking for more 'data' :-). What version of Puppet are you running on the master and agents? I'm guessing you're running the agent as a daemon correct? ken.
