Issue #2776 has been updated by Todd Zullinger.
I believe there might be other relevant bugs at bugzilla.redhat.com, but here's one I found: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?format=multiple&id=442172 In that, Ulrich Drepper states that using nscd is the way to solve this type of problem. I think I've seen/read that Firefox does a bit of a dance to re-read when resolv.conf is updated, but I don't have any links handy to back that up. ---------------------------------------- Bug #2776: changes to resolv.conf are not followed by puppet on clients http://projects.reductivelabs.com/issues/2776 Author: Ludwin Janvier Status: Needs more information Priority: Normal Assigned to: Ludwin Janvier Category: network Target version: 0.25.2 Affected version: 0.25.1 Keywords: Branch: How to reproduce : 1) Comment "nameserver" lines in your resolv.conf (or, I suppose, any DNS-resolution config on the system) 2) Start puppet demon. Of course, I get messages : puppetd[10109]: Could not request certificate: Certificate retrieval failed: Could not find server puppet puppetd[10109]: Could not find server : getaddrinfo: Temporary failure in name resolution 3) Edit resolv.conf and restore namserver lines. Puppet is not able to get its server (same lines) This is not just a paper issue. In my farms, server get their DNS config via DHCP. And parameters are written a few seconds AFTER puppet start (even if network service is started before puppet). Thus, puppet is never working on my server ; I have to restart puppet by hand.
