We currently do not support running the module tool on windows due to
its reliance on tar as a packing format. This will be fixed in a
future release, see http://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/11276.

The workflow instead is to install the module on your master, and run
`puppet agent` on the windows host, which will pluginsync the
necessary files from the master to the agent host.

The puppetlabs-registry module provides more details about how this
process works on windows:
https://forge.puppetlabs.com/puppetlabs/registry

If instead you want to use `puppet apply`, then you can extract the
tarball and point your modulepath at it as described here:

Hi,

For export control reasons, I am looking for an information.

Puppet is using cryptography and certificates, is it with openssl only ?

Hi,

Is there an Eclipse plugin and a Maven plugin to develop and package Puppet modules ?

Yes Puppet uses openssl for it's certificates.
If you use mod_passenger and apache you can specify which cyphers it uses so that may help you if you need to restrict it to a particular set of cyphers.

Hi, 

I believe that this is supposed to be installed on the puppet master - and since you can't run puppet master on windows you are out of luck. 

Sorry,
Den

Hi,

I learnt that we can install master on linux machine with cloud provisioner installed and client to be run on windows. This way we can work out with cloud provisioner on windows. Can any one please give me details of the steps to be followed. Give me the link for the page where the details are mentioned.

Thanks,

PuppetUser
