Thanks for the feedback. It will make life a lot easier if I can deploy/maintain puppet via a RO NFS mount point. I presume you have the local stuff like /etc/ init.d/puppetmaster /etc/sysconfig/puppet /etc/puppet/puppet.conf managed separately and located on each system?
I thought it might be interesting to have the configs on NFS, but I don't know if that would scale very well. Thanks!
