Bug #7437: Fileserver needs security documentation
https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/7437

Author: Raz MaTaz
Status: Unreviewed
Priority: Normal
Assignee: 
Category: documentation
Target version: 
Affected Puppet version: 
Keywords: 
Branch: 


A simple yet critical question that I couldn't find an answer for neither in 
the puppet docs, nor on google, nor on IRC:

When fileserver.conf contains an `allow *`-line, will that allow any arbitrary 
host to download files from that fileserver-section?
Or will puppet verify the SSL certificate before allowing connections to the 
fileserver?

When using puppet to manage cloud-servers then it's near inevitable to set 
`allow *` for all fileserver sections.
Is puppet secure with such a configuration?
