I can describe my own cluster briefly. Perhaps that will help clarify: - A fileserver, Exodia, also running the Puppetmaster and an NFS server. - Five client-machines that mount the NFS share. The details of the NFS share are distributed using Puppet-agent from the puppetmaster on Exodia. So, if I want to add a new cliesnt-machine to my cluster, it is easy to get the relevant NFS share mounted. - I have a gateway-machine which has a firewall. The firewall settings are distributed from the puppetmaster. Its therefore fairly easy to match the ports needed for a webserver running on Exodia to the ports opened and redirected by the gateway. Now, if I want to share the setup of the entire cluster with someone that wants to build a similar cluster, I can simply share the puppet template files I use to run my cluster. > > -- > Dr Richard Stallman > President, Free Software Foundation > 51 Franklin St > Boston MA 02110 > USA > www.fsf.org www.gnu.org > Skype: No way!
