Follow the instructions on Github to Create an Access Token in Github

By default, git credentials are not cached so you need to tell Git if you want to avoid having to provide them each time Github requires you to authenticate. On Mac, Git comes with an “osxkeychain” mode, which caches credentials in the secure keychain that’s attached to your system account.

You can tell Git you want to store credentials in the osxkeychain by running the following:-

On the master: puppet cert clean <agent_certname> On the agent: mv /etc/puppetlabs/puppet/ssl/ /etc/puppetlabs/puppet/ssl_bak Never do this if you are trying to regenerate the cert for the agent on the master. Instead you would need to delete specific certs On the agent: puppet agent -t On the master: puppet cert sign <agent_certname>

• Does the design expect failures to happen regularly and handle them gracefully?
• Have we kept things as simple as possible?
