I have an idea! I was playing around with foreman and noticed a new error message: root@foreman:~# /etc/puppet/node.rb winpet1 Could not send facts to Foreman: "\x84" from ASCII-8BIT to UTF-8 So I started comparing the yaml files in /var/lib/puppet/yaml/facts/ and noticed that the "id" variable is strange when puppet is running as user SYSTEM: < id: "winpet1\x5cadministrator" --- > id: !binary "bnQtYXV0b3JpdIR0XHN5c3RlbQ==\n" If I remove this line from the yaml file /etc/puppet/node.rb does not complain anymore! Now the new question is: why is the ID garbled in this way? Thanks, Andy. -- The supreme irony of life is that hardly anyone gets out of it alive.
