Subject: CentOS 5 packages in EPEL are outdated ?

Hi,

I tried using EPEL repositories as stated
here: http://projects.puppetlabs.com/projects/puppet/wiki/Puppet_Red_Hat_Ce...
The Puppet version there is 2.6.14 or did I miss something?

My concern is: will I have reports with that version? I'm using dashboard
to keep an eye on my deployment and I need to know if there is a problem
without checking on each server...

Regards,

Answering to myself: no 2.6.14 doesn't send reports.
I'll have a look at yum.puppetlabs.com

Use the rpmforge repos. That version is 2.7.9

Use the Puppet Labs repo,

http://yum.puppetlabs.com  it will always be updated.  It does not
require EPEL or any other repository for functionality.

Is this only an issue with integrating with dashboard or are you not
getting reports at all with 2.6.14?  I'm using the EPEL packages and
my reports are working AFAICT.

Is there rsync access to that repo?  I'd like to mirror it behind our firewall so our machines can access it, and HTTP mirroring is so sub-optimal.

The dashboard integration part.
I ended up using yup.puppetlabs.com and it works fine :-)

Good to know.  I wonder if the dashboard packages should require
puppet >= 2.7.x ?

You should be able to use a 2.6.x agent and have it report to
Dashboard.  Our Puppet Enterprise 1.0 - 1.2 did just that. (As did my
deployments of Puppet before I came to Puppet Labs).   The version of
dashboard hasn't changed much since 1.2.0, it's been mainly some
eye-candy and bug fixes.

Indeed. I was running 2.6.x agents with Dashboard 1.2.3 until just last week when I upgraded to 2.7.11. Zero issues.
