Generally this happens because firewalls, NAT routers or session state tracking kills idle connections. When mcollective isn't used the connection is 100% idle so when these devices drop the connection the TCP layer of your OS doesnt even become aware. If that's the problem just setting: registerinterval = 300 registration = Agentlist will probably solve it for you, if not we need to look further and will need to see debug logs or something. mcollective has its own list on google groups called mcollective-users, best to send these questions there if this doesnt resolve it for you -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
