A (relatively) quick way to get started would be to put the output of 'puppet agent --genconfig' into the file output by 'puppet agent --configprint config', and modifying to taste. The 'puppet config print all' is getting the settings from the internal defaults of Puppet itself, so it's not really fetching them from anywhere. -- Jacob Helwig http://about.me/jhelwig
