Hello, Attempting to setup a CA primary/standby as well as seperate puppetmaster servers (all running Apache/Passenger) behind another Apache/Passenger type load balancer. Clients are not getting certs:- err: Could not request certificate: Could not intern from s: nested asn1 error Clearly an SSL issue but not something I know a great deal about. loadbalancer.conf # Puppet Load Balancing

I revoked the certificate of one of the clients by issuing the following command on puppetmaster : puppet cert clean <hostname> Then tried to access the catalog from <hostname> via : puppet agent --server=puppet .... and I can still access the catalogs from the master without any error.

I have a problem I can''t figure out. I was having cert problems with a host - it seemed to have multiple host names (mot likely from dns changes in the past) and all the certs were valid.

So I tried: puppetca --revoke hostname puppetca --clean hostname restart puppetmaster puppetca --list --all (host does not show up -

I''m looking for a way to run more than one puppetmaster on the same server under passenger. Most of the puppet CPU load is waiting for the catalogs to compile. This also seems to be mostly what takes large amounts of RAM. I have storedconfigs on. I want to be able to move the fileserver to a different pool of puppetmaster processes. Is there an easy way to tell the client, either in

Hey Folks, I''m looking at doing automated provisioning of new servers and am trying to integrate puppet into this process.
