Turns out my issue was caused by having an incorrect "*puppetdir"* URL in
my foreman.yaml file. It would appear that puppetdir setting in
foreman.yaml needs to be the same as the "vardir" Puppet Master setting. I
suppose this makes sense as I believe the ENC script is leveraging the
cached facts stored in vardir and sending them to Foreman.
Perhaps the docs could be a bit more explicit about this setting? It
wasn't clear to me anyways.
Cheers,
