Puppet users - Dec 2012 - Not able to install puppet enterprise onn agent node using install command.

Hi,

I have created an agent node from a master node using below command.

puppet node_aws create --image ami-cc5af9a5 --keyname icos-client --type 
ti.micro

Now as i am trying to install puppet on it using below command

puppet node install \
--install-script=puppet-
enterprise \
--installer-payload=/usr/local/puppet/puppet-2.7.0.tar.gz \
--installer-answers=/usr/local/puppet/agent.txt \
--puppetagent-certname=ip-10-224-122-211.ec2.internal \
--login root \
--debug \
--keyfile  /usr/local/puppet/lalit.ppk \
ec2-54-242-140-98.compute-1.amazonaws.com

I am getting below error message.

[root@ip-10-224-122-211 puppet]# puppet node install \
> --install-script=puppet-enterprise \
> --installer-payload=/usr/local/puppet/puppet-2.7.0.tar.gz \
> --installer-answers=/usr/local/puppet/agent.txt \
> --puppetagent-certname=ip-10-224-122-211.ec2.internal \
> --login root \
> --debug \
> --keyfile  /usr/local/puppet/lalit.ppk \
> ec2-54-242-140-98.compute-1.amazonaws.com
notice: Waiting for SSH response ...
info: Executing remote command ...
debug: Command: date
err: not a private key (/usr/local/puppet/lalit.ppk)
err: Try ''puppet help node install'' for usage

Using same ppk file, i am able to login to agent node using ssh/putty 
client.I also tried using private dns instead of public dns but no success. 
Can anybody help.

Regards,
Lalit.

What operating system are you running the command from?

Does running "ssh -i /usr/local/puppet/lalit.ppk root@
ec2-54-242-140-98.compute-1.amazonaws.com" allow you to login?

From what I understand a .ppk file is generated from putty, in order to use 
it with an open ssh agent you would need to convert the putty private key 
to a format it can understand
