Hi,
I am trying to use the puppetlabs-dsc module on Windows 2012r2. I have
WMF5 installed on the Windows guest. I am trying to get this working

examples below.

How has this been going for you. I have a similar situation. Am using
"puppet server" version 1.1.1 (based on 3.8.2) and am seeing the same
problem.

I was in the exact same situation and found a dirty solution was to simply
to use service iptables stop.
It's a bit of a dirty workaround and definitely wouldn't recommend it on an
open network but it solved the issue for me to use it on a few internal vms.
Hope it helped.

I'm kinda surprised that an SMF module for Solaris wasnt made before.
(that is to say, yes there is support for enabling a pre-existing SMF
service... but there isnt one for creating one from scratch)

Looking at the puppet logs on the affected nodes it looks like the puppet
agent will occasionally assume "localhost" as its fqdm and then gives up
when the certs don't match. Maybe it's connected to waking from sleep and

Except that is not strictly true.
There is an early-exit "fail" directive that can be used conditionally.

Hmm.. after reading the solaris manpage, it seems that the "useradd"

So that part could theoretically be fine for me... it's the "does user

But... I am not tracking how Puppet detects that.
