Hello Gav and Meiji, I tried all the above.. still it doesn't solve my issue any further suggestion?
my output when I run "puppet device --verbose" # puppet device --verbose info: starting applying configuration to sw1 at telnet://10.0.0.1/ info: Creating a new SSL key for sw1 err: Could not request certificate: Could not write /var/opt/lib/pe-puppet/devices/sw1/ssl/private_keys/sw1.pem to privatekeydir: Permission denied - /var/opt/lib/pe-puppet/devices/sw1/ssl/private_keys/sw1.pem info: Creating a new SSL key for sw1 err: Could not request certificate: Could not write /var/opt/lib/pe-puppet/devices/sw1/ssl/private_keys/sw1.pem to privatekeydir: Permission denied - /var/opt/lib/pe-puppet/devices/sw1/ssl/private_keys/sw1.pem info: Creating a new SSL key for sw1 err: Could not request certificate: Could not write /var/opt/lib/pe-puppet/devices/sw1/ssl/private_keys/sw1.pem to privatekeydir: Permission denied - /var/opt/lib/pe-puppet/devices/sw1/ssl/private_keys/sw1.pem . . . .
