Hi, note that running puppet without administrator privileges for initial server setup is probably pointless. Therefor it is my sincere hope that there is not yet any solution to kick this off via web interface, because that would imply serious security concerns.
I suppose you could solve this more cleanly with some sort of pull mechanism that each Windows box invokes during provisioning (e.g. a scheduled task) that allows you to specify the name of the desired .pp file in a more secure location. But then, they *do* have something similar to that, with a pretty good security model too - it's the puppet master of course ;-) Cheers, Felix On 01/09/2014 06:54 PM, pskovshu...@gmail.com wrote: > I understand that with masterless set up, I simply need to run puppet > apply <file.pp> on each server and that's fine.
