Hello, we have one puppet server managing approx servers, all FreeBSD. The problem is that the puppet clients all hangs, one by one, eventually. They will run for anything between an hour up to a week. But eventually the all hang. We really like puppet and want to keep using it. But the way it is now is completely unusable.

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.

Hi All, In my set-up, I''ve got a cron job that triggers a Puppet run every 20 minutes. I''ve found that on approximately 13 nodes (out of 166), puppetd just hangs. I have to go in, kill the process, remove /var/lib/puppet/state/puppetdlock, and run puppet again and then it''s fine. After a while, it just hangs again so I have to go in, kill the process, etc. Any ideas?

Does anyone have some examples of using this create_resources function, https://github.com/puppetlabs/puppetlabs-create_resources, ?
