[Puppet Users] Puppet client log events, centralized?

I've noticed that events for puppet client are logged locally (I'm just starting out with puppet). Is there a way to have these events sent to a central parser so they might be easily parsed/sorted/acted- upon? I probably missed a configuration directive. Thanks. -- You received this message

Sure, Debian stable -is- stable, and there is a lot to be said for that. (Ditto for Ubuntu LTS.) The statement was (somewhat rudely) "they aren't outdated, go here and see". 2+ years counts as "outdated". Last-major-version and most of a year old is "outdated". Note that I didn't reply to the OP,

Is it possible for Puppet to make those two runs automatically back to back? For example, the first run does modules A and B. The second run includes module C right after the first run is completed. I hope that made sense! On Oct 13, 9:52 am, Felix Frank wrote: > On 10/13/2010 03:48 PM, Kikanny w
