These instructions are centered around how you need to configure *the master* to enable it to support agent installations. They assume that the master is managing itself via a Puppet agent running on the same node, which I guess is normal for PE (and common for OS, too). > I've added the required Class for the node I'm hoping to install the Agent > on (pe_repo::platform::el_5_x86_64) and set off a Puppet Run, but I'm not > seeing any new packages in /opt/puppet/packages/public.

I am very much inclined to think that either you have not assigned the specified class to the master (though maybe you assigned it to some other node), or that it has not successfully been applied there.
