Try running the dnsdomainname program (or hostname --fqdn) from a
shell.  I'd bet dollars to donuts that it gives you the same message.
If it does, then this is not a Puppet issue: it means that the system
resolver cannot resolve the system's own host name.  I get similar
behavior with my puppet clients that acquire their hostname and IP
address via DHCP.

The diagnostic message is issued by facter (which you can test by
running facter directly from a shell prompt), and it is non-fatal, at
least for me.  The effect on Puppet is simply that the 'dnsdomainname'
fact will not be available for the node.
