Puppet users - Jul 2013 - Problems with the connection. Please help me!

Hi! when I try to link de node with de master I do that:

$ puppet agent --server ipofthemaster --waitforcert 60 --test

Then I have thats errors:

err: Could not retrieve catalog from remote server: Connection refused - 
connect (2)

warning: Not using cache on failed catalog
err: could not retrieve catalog; skipping run
err: Could not send report Connection refused - connect(2)

Where is the problem?

Thanks!

You must have hostnames for puppet. The SSL certificates are valid for some 
certain cn, which corresponds to hostname. The ip address doesn''t match
hostname, so SSL refuses the connection. Set up DNS or hosts files.

Cheers,

Make sure that the firewall on your master is not blocking the Puppet 
service port (8140/tcp by default), that you''re specifying the correct
IP
number of the master (but see below), and that the puppetmaster service is 
actually running on the master.  I think your current problem is in one of 
those areas.

After you get that sorted out, you will probably face the issue that Paul 
raised: the --server option should give a resolvable *name* of the master, 
and it should match the certname or one of the alternative names on the SSL 
certificate with which the master authenticates itself to the agent.  If 
you''ve not done anything special with Puppet''s SSL
configuration, then that
boils down to passing the master''s hostname to the agent''s
--server option
(or configuring that option in puppet.conf).

Be aware that you can often get more information about what''s going
wrong
by running the Puppet agent with maximum diagnostic messages turned on by 
specifying the --debug option.  Also, you can sometimes get useful 
information from the master''s logs.
