== Configuring geeblox server ==

You might run into a few problems with geeblox server configuration.  Using our freepuppet-helper for both geeblox servers fela and femi threw one or both of these error:

{{{
remote: Could not retrieve hostname: getaddrinfo: Name or service not known
remote: warning: Could not retrieve fact fqdn
}}}

It seems that the default configurations of these servers require us to modify the dns and host settings of the server itself.  Here's are files to check, if you run into these errors.

 * /etc/hostname
 * /etc/hosts
 * /etc/resolv.conf

On fela this is what they look like respectively, you should replace fela below with the actual server name and correct ip address.

'''/etc/hostname'''

{{{
fela
}}}

'''/etc/hosts'''

{{{
127.0.0.1       localhost
74.119.238.34   fela.mayfirst.org       fela

# The following lines are desirable for IPv6 capable hosts
::1     ip6-localhost ip6-loopback
fe00::0 ip6-localnet
ff00::0 ip6-mcastprefix
ff02::1 ip6-allnodes
ff02::2 ip6-allrouters
}}}

'''/etc/resolv.conf'''

{{{
nameserver 4.2.2.1
}}}

/etc/resolve.conf should only look like this for initial configuration.  Puppet should change those values to the appropriate values.  This is only for getting the initial puppet configurations working properly.
