Hi, thanks for the information.
I am wondering if it makes sense to move the Puppet CA also to the external Puppet Server. Do I even need a puppet instalation at all on the Foreman server? Background is we are already using a Puppet Server and I don't want to use a second one without having a reason to do so (e.g. Foreman requires it). I have read in the documentation but unfortunatelly the documentation is more or less vague how Foreman is connected to puppet. I am often thinking 'why is that so' and 'why isn't there more deeper information to read'. Greetings Tobias Von: Jason McMahan [mailto:[email protected]] Gesendet: Montag, 31.

If I am incorrect please let me know. Have a great day.

Is there a way to use Foreman with this existing Puppet Server and if yes how is it possible? The manual is a little bit difuse on that topic.
