I want to avoid duplicating the configuration if possible and keep the data

Hey guys, Does anyone know how to change the location of puppet.conf? In my situation, I don''t want to store it under /etc/puppet/puppet.conf or ~/.puppet/puppet.conf -- I''d like to store it under /opt/puppet/puppet.conf in this example. Is there a method without having to symlink, perhaps with an environment variable like PUPPET_CONF=.... ? Thanks for your time, Jason --

Hello Folks! I am trying to learn puppet. Installed the puppet 3.0.2 and configured one node as the master and the other as the client. Generated the certs and all that.

Hi guys, I have a box that needs to identify itself to the puppetmaster as something different from the FQDN. I added certname to the agent configuration before the first run, but it doesn''t seem to be sufficient. The certificate was generated for the FQDN, and the host appears in the dashboard as the FQDN, and the node name used to evaluate the manifest is also the FQDN. I would

Hello All, I don''t seem to be able to get reports to display on the foreman interface.

Hello, Everybody! I need to allow my developers to run a special script on QA servers and nowhere else. I put this sort of thing in place: class app-server { packages: foo:; bar:; baz:; if $environment == ''qa'' { file { ''a'': content => ... } } which feels kinda kludgey to me.

The puppet.conf files point to the drbd volume for vardir.
