Notify via E-Mail

[ytmp123]

Hi guys,

I want the Puppet-Master to notify the admin via E-Mail: SMTP, SSL & Authentification is required.
How can I do that with the help of "tagmail"?

Have you some clue for me?

This is something you should be configuring on the Puppet master's local MTA, be it Sendmail or Postfix or whatever. Then Puppet will just attempt to send email through localhost, and the MTA can determine how to route it and with what authentication methods.

Ah ok,

So I've to install and configure an SMTP-Server on the local-machine, on which the puppetmaster is installed. This local SMTP-Server then has to connect to the real SMTP-Server out there in the Internet. Is that right?

thanks

Correct! That way the Master doesn't have to know the specifics, it just queues the mail locally.
