puppet client

[Stuart Cracraft]

 

I have a box with this uname -a output:

 

  Linux myhost 2.6.32-300.11.1.el5uek #1 SMP Wed Mar 7 09:55:50 EST 2012 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

 

For various reasons, I cannot use Yum to download.

 

Anyone know the specific URL's/rpm's I can download to get puppet client up

for the above to work with a Puppet 3.2.1 master?

Took care of this.

Messy.

Made a company repo.

you are using oracle linux?

http://yum.puppetlabs.com/el/5/products/x86_64/ will be fine

++ Onward and upward!

anyway, yum is the best choice, you should get over your various reasons.

Looks like you haven't worked in a hosting firm with strenuous security yet.

Having paths open to the Internet are a big no-no.

Local repos are a good choice, even for sites with fewer constraints.  I certainly recommend a local repo for home-built packages, but I also recommend maintaining local mirrors of other needed repos.  It reduces traffic from the local network to the Internet, and gives you a measure of independence.
