[Puppet Users] How do I use a desktop client as puppet master?
Fully Qualified Domain Name seems to be a requirement for puppet master server. I was expecting to run into issues say around 2/3 of the way through, not at step one! So I guess my question is, is it possible to use a desktop system, with no FQDN as the puppet master server? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.

You can run puppet standalone if you want a gentle way to start. -- Julian Simpson Software Build and Deployment http://www.build-doctor.com http://twitter.com/builddoctor -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.

Config is not pulled by clients but pushed by Server that way. Daemon on client has not to be run, saving Resources. I do not that very big puppet Installation though. - -- best regards, markus -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.10 (Darwin) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAkteeOQACgkQYoWFBIJE9eXg8gCZAd+KraoKJIuM4HIy8mD6gjkw e44AnREpKOAZMgktyoyJzAy5FIaYWI96 =P/Rj -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
