So I''m trying to get multiple environments to work with puppet 0.25.1 on ubuntu 8.04 and no matter what I do, puppet just completely ignores any environment setting. There''s really next to no information in terms of configuration on the multiple environments documentation page (http://reductivelabs.com/trac/puppet/wiki/UsingMultipleEnvironments) other than saying that the

Hello Gang, I''m working on scaling my puppet solution, and I''m deploying multiple masters w/ passenger that are going sit behind a load balancer.

Hi All, I would like to pick your brains as to the best way to configure the below senario within puppet. I am currently configuring puppet for our environment and have seperated development/back office from production through configuring roles for each server to identify them as such.

Is is possible to have a puppetmaster that is a client of a different puppetmaster? We manage our customers'' server via puppet, but one customer has a puppetmaster server which looks after their internal systems.

I have created my first ''fact'', first attempt at Ruby too, and configured the fileserver to server it but when a Fedora (5 or 6) client sync''s puppetd appears to hang. CentOS clients sync and use the new fact fine. Find attached the fact file and the output from ''puppetd --debug --factsync'' on a FC5 client is below. This is a 0.20.1 client and

I am trying to come up with a workable solution in managing numerous Mac workstations allowing a high degree of flexibility with regards to certs. My puppet environment is setup to application installation on machines that have been ''imaged'' with a base OS and the puppet and facter apps. So, when a Mac is ''imaged'' and subsequently re-booted, puppet is run at

hi, i''m trying to set up my puppetmaster infrastructure with multiple puppetservers behind load balancers in each of our datacenters. i''m using 0.24.6. i''ve read the howto on puppet scalability, and i think i''ve got the ssl config working correct, but i''m noticing that when puppetd is used to build a puppetmaster, some of the files in $vardir/ ssl

I am trying to use puppet to configure Amazon EC2 instances. The server is my own box at home. Both server and clients are Ubuntu 8.04 running puppet 0.24.5. On the client when I run: puppetd --server myserver.com --waitforcert 60 --test I get a cert to sign on the server. I sign it and run the command above again on the client. But then I get 3 errors similar to this: warning: Certificate

Started the discussion in puppet users mailing list based on recommendation from luke. This discussion is to a follow up regarding bug#1955 "Could not find server puppet" - installation/configuration error". jamtur01''s last recommendation: Rather than renaming things try the certname option (see http://reductivelabs.com/trac/puppet/wiki/ConfigurationReference). But

Hi everyone, I’ve been working on getting puppet set up for our systems for the past week, and all has gone well in learning about writing manifests, but now that I’m ready to set it into production, I realize that it’s still unclear to me exactly how that’s supposed to go. For instance, during testing it has always been that I manually started and stopped puppetd and puppetmasterd on their

I''d like to extend my use of puppet to manage my desktop/notebook macs. As others have noted, the hostname of the mobile machines tends to change frequently, so basing the node name (in my site.pp) and the corresponding cert and private key names seems to be an issue. I seem to recall somewhat talking about this at Puppet Camp last week….. Generally my signing strategy is always to

Hi guys, I''m installing Puppet on RHEL5 systems using KickStart but struggle with the first boot.

Hello, I have followed the documentation at http://docs.puppetlabs.com/dashboard/manual/1.2/bootstrapping.html to try to setup dashboard but after I manually add a node it shows up as unreported.

I am trying to get a custom fact to sync. The fact is in a module. It will sync if I run puppet with "--pluginsync" but not otherwise. I have "pluginsync=true" in my puppet.conf. Shouldn''t the command line option and puppet.conf option have the same results? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.

Hello... I wanted to be able to startup an EC2 instance with one command and have a fully functioning server without having to shell into each new instance and configure the bits to allow puppet to finish the configuration. Here are some notes I came up with for bootstrapping an ec2 instance with puppet using Ubuntu 10.04. I left out a lot of things about creating and running custom AIM

Hello! The FAQ contains an entry about autosigning: http://reductivelabs.com/trac/puppet/wiki/FrequentlyAskedQuestions#why-shouldn-t-i-use-autosign-for-all-my-clients It says: > The certificate itself is stored, so two nodes could not connect with the same CN I tried this (using 0.25.4), and actually, that doesn''t seem to be correct. I was able to run puppetd on two different
