Hi Does Puppet support SCAP? If yes, how do you use it? If no, have you thought about it? Is it possible? Have you dismissed the idea completely? If it does support SCAP or will in the future, will the operating system be a factor, i.e. will it support both Linux and Windows?

Hello, I have enabled summary emails from foreman and set up a cron job which sends me periodic summary emails. However, the mail''s content is sort of plain text. Now this is more like a feature request rather than a problem, I am wondering if we could use some kind of HTML template and pass the values through this HTML template and then mail the output as a summary email to the

When I say busybox it''s actually VMware ESX server which seems to use busybox (which I guess is the case a number of other software appliances) . Reason for wanting to install puppet is to run the cli tools to create nightly vmware snapshots. I''m happy to give it a go (and add the docs to the wiki) but I''m not too sure at this stage how big a task this might be and what,

Is there a way to force the puppetmaster to resign certificates for existing certificates when a new CSR for the same hostname arrives? When we reinstall freshly formatted clients with puppet (with the same hostname) the puppet client complains: err: Could not request certificate: Retrieved certificate does not match private key; please remove certificate from server and regenerate it

Does anyone have a technique for performing an exec the first time puppetd runs but then reverting to refreshonly => true state for subsequent runs? The basic idea is: file { "/etc/foo": notify => Exec["bar"] } exec { "bar": command => "Do stuff to /etc/foo", refreshonly => true } Should I use a fact that is unset based on a

Hi, I''m looking to find a way to get the target filename inside a template. (e.g. if I have file {"/tmp/foo": content => template("foo")} I want to have a variable represent "/tmp/foo" inside the template. I''ve already tried using file, scope etc, but looking at the code, it doesn''t seems that i can access the filename inside the

Hello All, So I finally got around to start to cut over node definitions from standard flat files to external nodes (foreman), and getting error message: "Error 400 on SERVER: Could not find node ''nodename''; cannot compile" - So basically it can''t pick up the node from the external node config. When I test the fetching of the yaml file it seems to work

I''m having difficulty getting my head around some CA issues My client has: [puppetd] ca_server=puppetca.mydomain.com and puppet resolves to a different machine. when puppet connects, it requests a signature from puppetca.mydomain.combut then on the next pass fails with the following: err: Could not retrieve catalog: Certificates were not trusted: SSL_connect returned=1 errno=0

Hello All, I''m trying to start using external nodes under foreman, and I''m running into some issues. I have the entries in puppet.conf: [main] external_nodes = /etc/puppet/external_node.rb node_terminus = exec The enternal_node.rb script is the one that came with foreman: #!/usr/bin/ruby # a simple script which fetches external nodes from Foreman # you

Hi All, In my companies environment, we have multiple sites in multiple geographic locations, sometimes with high latency between the sites. I''m trying to come up with a solution that could provide puppet infrastructure to all sites nodes. ----a few assumptions--- - puppet manifest / configuration is fetched from a centralized version control system. - store db is needed (ssh keys,

Hi, I have a Puppet Enterprise (2.0) puppetmaster running with Foreman, and having trouble getting it working as an External Node Classifier. In short, if I manually add a test client into site.pp, it will retrieve the proper catalog / classes, but I would like to avoid having to do that. I''m also using environments (production/testing/ development) as well, but think I have most of

We have successfully installed puppet on a CentOS Server, but I am battling with a deployment. It has to do with grid software. The repository gets created, then begins installation. The problem is that it just hangs - no errors, no network activity. I can see puppet is running, but nothing it being updated. Any pointers ? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google

Hi all. We have a bunch of RHEL servers running Puppet. They are also connected to our Red Hat Satellite server. Currently we don''t have any master documentation system that stores all relevant information (i.e. type of server, hardware info, linux configuration, etc) about the servers. So what I''d like to do is implement some sort of system that can hold all this information.

Hi all, As I understand it, storeconfigs needs to be enabled on both the agent and the master to function ideally. I have a couple of questions: -> Can the various agents and the master safely share the same storeconfigs db (say, a postgresql server)? Is there any benefit to setting things up this way? -> Is there any benefit for an _agent_ to use an RDBMS vs sqlite for its
