I''m assuming this is possible, but I can''t find a good starting point anywhere, so I''m hoping someone here can help. What I want to do is, somewhere in the cert approval process, run an extra check before saying yes. I have a puppet master running with auto sign turned on, I bring up a puppet agent, it connects, authenticates and all is good. What I''d like

Hi all, I''m looking for background information about how bug #7127[1] should be fixed: prerun_command don''t stop puppet on error I think there''s general agreement that if the prerun command fails, then the catalog should not be applied, but the report should be sent, and the report''s status should be "failed". However, what about the post-run

Hi, How can i divide my puppet.conf file in multiple files ? I would like to have the [main] and [agent] section in puppet.conf and [master] in puppetmaster.conf for example.

Hello, I'm having a problem in one of the FreeBSD boxes that I manage. All of a sudden, and for no particular reason, the machine just reboots abruptly. When it loads up again, I cannot see an indication that there's anything wrong in the configuration. By the way, the machine is running like this for few months, and no changes were made lately. Machine has 2GB RAM, RAID-5 disk array and

Hi, I''m upgrading from 23.2 to the latest and have "dbmigrate = true" in my config.

Since our move to github for pull requests and patches, the usefulness of puppet-dev has declined significantly. puppet-dev used to be a great list for development discussion of puppet and the ecosystem around it.

Hello I am entertaining the idea of putting some time and effort into making Facter and Puppet run on MS Windows. Call me crazy ... Does anyone know anything about the issues that I''m likely to face? What are the major stumbling blocks? Initially I''d be happy just getting File to work, this would be of tremendous value. I''m guessing that Facter will require the
