Thanks for the suggestion. I did wonder about copying all the modules and configs off the Puppet Master onto the test box. My concern is really just about keeping that lot up to date, and most importantly to make sure that it behaves the same as it would do if it came from the Master. It could be done this way, but I'm worried it seems simple now, but will turn into a headache later on. If this is the only way to do it, then I guess I'll just have to suck it up :-(
This might sound daft, but where's the security issue? If I'm root on a box, and I want to do some wacky install on it, then I already can, regardless of what Puppet thinks. This wouldn't allow me to change anything on the Puppet Master, so I wouldn't be able to alter any boxes except the one I'm on. What additional concern would there be for having this as a feature? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
