Re: [Puppet Users] Re: Force resigning of existing certificates

Unfortunately, this is still a 'missing feature' of Puppet IMO. I applaud Foreman for adding it as functionality though in their own code. For our situation, we ended up writing our own CGI script on the Puppet CA servers as well as a client-side script that runs periodically on the clients to v

Re: [Puppet Users] Re: Force resigning of existing certificates

Out of curiosity, if you're going to do this, why not just set the TTL to 100y and be done with it? Doesn't help old systems, but certainly fixes new ones without the need for constant re-signing. Trevor On Thu, Apr 28, 2011 at 10:30 AM, Matt Wise wrote: > Unfortunately, this is still a 'missin

Thanks for the feedback. It will make life a lot easier if I can deploy/maintain puppet via a RO NFS mount point. I presume you have the local stuff like /etc/ init.d/puppetmaster /etc/sysconfig/puppet /etc/puppet/puppet.conf managed separately and located on each system? I thought it might be

Also, do you just install the puppet from the src or include the GEM in the ruby distribution. I would think managing it from src might be better, if it's just an NFS RO mount point. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group. To post to t

That is the problem. :-) If its false/true I need to do stuff like if $enabled != undef { class { 'doit': enabled => $enabled } # This here will use true or false to delete or add files for example } But if it's undef I don't even want to include the class. I'm guessing that if this is not a v

Re: [Puppet Users] Manifest not applied unless touched

Hi, Yeah, I've seen this too. Passenger performs caching out of the box. You can turn this off by specifying 'RackEnv development' in your apache vhost. That should turn off caching. It should re-read manifest without it after a timeout (probably also configurable) for when you want to run in
