Hi there,
Thanks for the responses so far; the docs say "Instead of specifying
the server name explicitly using the / tells Puppet to look for the
file on the Puppet master currently managing the node.". The puppet
master managing the node is specified by the "server" config in /etc/
puppet.con
Run puppet --genconfig and find all the parameters that would need to
be changed to make it work. Most if not all of the important stuff can
be modified by either args to puppet/d or via the puppet.conf

I understand that I can only edit files where permissions allow. But can I
run puppet without a "puppet" user?
Basically, after reading over the documentation, I noticed a number of
references to users ("puppet") and paths (/var/...) that puppet needs to run

Thanks for that, that is quite interesting. Unfortunately AFAIK I can't

You could simply dump xml output inside your template.
e.g. if you have a simple ruby hash a[:b]="c"
in your template do:
<%=a.to_xml%> and you will get the following output:

c\n\n"

Greg,
What I struggled with with a template is that the data is multi-dimensional.
So for instance I did:
$policyengines = [ "PolicyEngine01/10.4.4.1", "PolicyEngine02/10.4.4.2" ]
Then in the template I could $policyengine.split("/")[0] to pull out various
aspects. And this works, but its ugly a
Joel,
Would a template be more what you are looking for? I've only done
a couple of very simple templates myself, but it sounds like the sort
of thing that it would be suited to - provided you can get the
required
info to the .erb file...

I would like to generate this file automatically for each node whenever I
add a new service into puppet. I think external resources are the way to go

Wonderful, that patch seems to have solved this error. Thank you so much

Puppet (and Facter) was installed by hand (I have a script to install
the latest from reductivelabs.com). I wasn't aware of EPEL, or that
it maintained a puppet package. I've forwarded this on to our
internal repo manager to see if this is something that we can include
in our local mirrors. Thi

Digging in, trying to get versions and paths, and all that stuff to

Thanks again.

I think the simplest answer for your case is to switch your launchd
plist around to not call puppet directly, but to instead call a script
that checks whether the right services are in place before actually
starting the first puppet run.
Alternatively, given that it sounds like this is only a pro
Hello List,
I'm running puppet on OS X Tiger 10.4.11. When using the launchd
plist to start up puppet, I'm frequently seeing this issue where
launchd will start up puppet very early in the boot process, often
before configd can set the hostname on the client. This results in

Hey Pieter,
I purposely set up the VMs on the same subnet as my physical boxes.
I know that VMWare Server does set up multiple networks but I did have
the ability to ping each from the other. I will look into it when I

from work though.
Thanks,

Hey Dave,
I purposely set them up as 'bridged' so they're on the same subnet as
my entire LAN.
I modified the /etc/hosts table on each to have entries for both and
can ping each by
its name; I'm hoping that was a sufficient test.
Appreciate the help,
Steve

Hi Steve,
I can't think of an obvious reason for failure but to rule out network
issues you can run the puppetd command below on the puppetmaster itself ,
effectively making it a client which is a legitimate thing to do. If that
works I would start looking at your network settings between the mas

You mentioned that each Fedora install was running in its own VM. Is
TCP functional in those VM's and are they able to communicate with
each other ?

I know the first statement isn't correct, since I use triple slashes all
the time, and my server's name isn't puppet. The second statement should
work regardless.
