The first interface is read-only and widely available to the organization to allow people to view reports, etc... This is: http://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/5217 The second interface uses Apache access controls to allow only authorized people to log in and write to the database, e.g. define new nodes, classes, and delete nodes. This is a stopgap until proper RBAC is added as a feature of the Dashboard. I believe the ticket to watch for this feature is: http://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/3219 > I've had a look at the node rake task and can see I can add a new > node, but can't see a method to destroy/delete a node. > > Also if this is possible, what happens to all the reports for this > node in the database?
