Yes, yum info iftop on the test node shows: Available Packages Name : iftop Arch : x86_64 Version : 0.17 Release : 1.el5.rf Size : 46 k Repo : misc Summary : Display bandwidth usage on an interface URL : http://www.ex-parrot.com/~pdw/iftop/ License : GPL Description: iftop does for network usage what top(1) does for CPU usage. It listens : to network traffic on a named interface and displays a table of current : bandwidth usage by pairs of hosts. Handy for answering the question : "why is our ADSL link so slow?".
Guess that means something else is going on. Probably a dumb syntax error or something on my part. I'll keep at it and post the solution when I find it. I wonder if creating a manifest.pp file and then running puppet apply manifest.pp will show any extra info? Don't even know if that is a valid troubleshooting step. Thanks for all the replies everyone.
