Is there an easy way to convert a puppet client into being a puppet master?
Here's the scenario. I'm using puppet to configure all my systems, and would like it to be able to deploy a new puppet master as well. We have systems worldwide so having local puppet masters is very desirable for fault tolerance. So Kickstart (via cobbler) installs a puppet client during the initial system installation, then puppet installs everything else. And I've written a puppet-server module to attempt to deploy the puppet-server package, but I end up getting into certificate problems every time. The initial cert draws complaints, so I delete it and clean the certificate from the master, but then the systems will not connect under any circumstances: # puppet agent -t Exiting: no certificate found and waitforcert is disabled There's no request on the master (either this or the other). Thoughts? Puppet 3.0.1 from puppetlabs rpms on Fedora 17. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
