This fix won't work, because /var/run is often a tmpfs, so /var/run/puppet will get lunched on reboot. The fix will actually have to be in the initscripts. Gah, I despise PID files. And programs that assume things about their placement and permissions. > puppet.conf should also point to /var/run/puppet instead of /var/run as > a rundir. I think I'll just go the whole hog and patch the source for that, considering that the rundir will be hardcoded in the init script anyway. It's strange that I made the original rundir permissions change several weeks ago and you're the first person to hit it. Oh well. I'll whip up a fix and get it out shortly. - Matt
