Hi readers, 

I am having trouble understanding the puppet user= configuration setting in 
the puppet.conf file. If puppet is configured to run as "puppet" by 
default, how can puppet execute system configuration settings? installing 
packages etc. is done basically by root and root only, so does that mean 
that puppet is normally limited in the things it can perform? 

I did not find anything in the docs regarding this, so please help me out 
here. 


thanks in advance & greetings, 
Axel.
