Actually yes, because the file content is sent only if the checksum differs (and if you provision many new nodes at the same time, then it can help).

You must setup your file serving master exactly like your catalog (or general) master. -- Brice Figureau Follow the latest Puppet Community evolutions on www.planetpuppet.org! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
