Ah! So the end goal is to really just be able to bootstrap puppet on a machine, not necessarily run an arbitrary module? If that is the case you should look at the following module, https://github.com/puppetlabs/puppetlabs-cloud-provisioner. Yes it says it is for provisioning cloud instances but it is in fact two faces. One for launching aws nodes and another for bootstrapping Puppet, via SSH. Last I checked the install via SSH did require keys though, wouldn't allow for passwords to be given on the command line. I think there is already a feature request for passwords. -- Cody Herriges Professional Service Engineer - Puppet Labs pgp key: 0x5DB77142 @ pgp.mit.edu -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
