So, I used workgroup manager to create a user and group puppet/ 
puppet.  I was hesitant to do this before, as I didn't (and still  
don't) know what all to configure on the account (password, level of  
access, etc), and I also wanted to at least try to troubleshoot  
whether --mkusers didn't work because of something I was missing/ 
mangling, or if it just, well, didn't work.

Getting a different error now:

15:58:11 tester:/etc/puppet root# puppetmasterd --verbose --debug
Ruby on darwin is broken; puppetmaster will not set its UID to  
'puppet' and must run as root

and system.log:

Feb  6 15:24:38 tester puppetmasterd[13934]: Reopening log files
Feb  6 15:24:38 tester puppetmasterd[13934]: Starting Puppet server  
version 0.24.7

Not perfect, but the daemon runs, and a test from a client (# puppetd  
--server myserver.domain.com --waitforcert 60 --test) is producing  
the expected results.  I'm seeing hope!
This is the ruby I'm running:
15:25:05 tester:/etc/puppet root# /usr/bin/ruby -v
ruby 1.8.6 (2007-03-13 patchlevel 0) [universal-darwin8.0]

I upgraded ruby to 1.8.6 before I started monkeying around with  
puppet, because I was aware of some issues with 1.8.2 that came stock  
in 10.4.  Not sure why it's complaining.

Now that we've gotten this far there are a lot more things I want to  
test and try out, but it's late Friday afternoon, so I have a good to- 
do list for Monday morning.  I'll let you know how it goes.  Thanks  
again for the assistance thus far.
