Re: The puppet agent should have a 'local' mode for CRL checking

I need to verify, but I think the docs may be unclear here. If Puppet detects that it has a CRL file on disk, it will not try to download one, regardless of the value of certificate_revocation. However, this could have implications for SERVER-2174, because in the intermediate CA case, we either need to know how to perform the modified check against the external CA, or we need to be able to disable updating the CRL.

Re: The puppet agent should have a 'local' mode for CRL checking

Trevor Vaughan are you asking for a way to configure the revocation mode such that if the local CRL on disk doesn't exist, then puppet errors and doesn't try to download it?

If you're ok with the agent downloading a missing CRL, then I agree with Maggie Dreyer that it's how puppet works currently. Though in the future we've talked about having the agent attempt to refresh the CRL periodically, in which case a local mode would mean never refresh.

PUP-2310 introduced the crl_refresh_interval which specifies how frequently to update the CRL. By default it behaves the same as puppet always has. It will download the CRL and never update. I think this ticket is a duplicate because if you place the CRL on the local file system, then puppet will never update the CRL. If I'm misunderstanding please reopen.
