Issue #3669 has been updated by Ben Hughes.

Excuse my ignorance, but isn't this before pluginsync? This is just talking to 
the master to try to get anything? Before it reads its catalogue and the likes?

Feature #3669: Make puppet honor DNS SRV records

I'd like to be able to define where puppet looks for the master server.

I propose the following:

By default try in the following order:

1. Look for a "_x-puppet._tcp.example.com" SRV record (or any name that you 
think is appropriate, but keep it a SRV record)
2. For backwards compatibility, if no SRV record is present look for 
puppet.example.com as a fallback or any value that is configured in the puppet 
config file

Reasoning:

A System Administrator can easily spread out the load over multiple puppet 
servers in this way or define some split horizon which answers with the 
"correct" hostname to use as a puppet master.

Thanks,
Martin
