Hi Eric, By default, hiera-cli uses /etc/hiera.yaml, hiera-puppet uses /etc/puppet/hiera.yaml as config file. That was my mistake starting using hiera cli for testing. Btw, "facter --puppet region" wil also work, so no need for grep anymore. On 05/09/2013 04:34 AM, Eric wrote: When I run

Yes it works perfectly, I run 2 puppet servers and one of them is the CA using a CNAME as well for the puppet master/ca. After it is set and working it is wonderful, however until you figure out that you need to remove the ssldir, then run puppet with dns_alt_names, then sign with dns_alt_names
