So in my auth.conf I have this currently (below), which I think is supposed to say allow any traffic in from any master I guess I could put those hostnames in for the puppet hosts with something like puppet*.company.com. Do I require SSL auth here? I am just sending inventory information to a designated node which is mostly being used for RO (informational) data so security is not as critical.
If it is a requirement that I have a signed CA, that could be an issue as I have two puppet masters in each datacenter that has its own shared CA across those two puppet masters only (certname = puppet). I don't have one signed CA that every master is using. path /facts auth any method save allow * On Wed, Jan 4, 2012 at 12:36 PM, Nan Liu <n...@puppetlabs.com> wrote: > On Tue, Jan 3, 2012 at 10:54 AM, Christopher Johnston > <chjoh...@gmail.com> wrote: > > I have multiple masters (40+) that reside in remote locations, I want to > > have them send puppet inventory data to a central inventory with mysql. > > Once the data is there I would like puppet dashboard installation use > that > > data.
