Heya, I''m using puppet on Ubuntu (Gutsy/Hardy) and there''s a problem with the default setup of Ubuntu. Ubuntu uses network-manager to start the network in the background, which in turn causes puppet to start before the network is up. Puppet will then exit because it can''t resolve the server name. Currently I "solve" this problem by uninstalling

Since the upgrade to 0.22.1 every boot hangs during the initd. Going into standalone mode

I''ve gone over the documentation several times now and I can''t figure out how to ''apply'' a manifest to a client.
