Ok, now this is getting weird. I had originally specified vardir in the [master] section of puppet.conf, and not specified reportdir explicitly. I had that setup for weeks, and yesterday discovered reports only under a different directory, as described in the previous message. After

I had a bit of an unpleasant surprise today. I discovered that my puppetserver-based master seems unwilling to put reports or other varying data where I tell it to do. The docs say: Puppet Server honors almost all settings in

I'm writing a module for Puppet self-management, or at least I think I am. I was surprised to not find very much along those lines on the Forge, and maybe I should take that as a bad sign, but I want to explore it at least a little bit. Maybe I just didn't find the right search terms --

I am working on rspec tests for a module for Puppet 5 that refers to nodes' $::trusted_facts hash, and, separately, relies on nodes' $::networking fact. In particular it uses the values of $::networking['fqdn'] and $::networking['hostname']. I would like to test scenarios where the
