描述：puppet使用SSL(https)协议来进行通讯，默认情况下，puppet server端使用基于Ruby的WEBRick HTTP服务器。由于WEBRick HTTP服务器在处理agent端的性能方面并不是很强劲，因此需要扩展puppet，搭建Apache或者其他强劲的web服务器来处理客户的https请求。
需要解决的问题：

The Apache 2 module was successfully installed.
Please edit your Apache configuration file, and add these lines:
LoadModule passenger_module /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/passenger-4.0.19/buildout/apache2/mod_passenger.so
PassengerRoot /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/passenger-4.0.19
PassengerDefaultRuby /usr/bin/ruby
After you restart Apache, you are ready to deploy any number of Ruby on Rails
applications on Apache, without any further Ruby on Rails-specific
configuration!
…创建虚拟主机并加载passenger相关模块，注意证书路径要和puppet实际证书路径对应。虚拟主机配置Apache以监听在8140端口，并且使用SSL和Puppet Master生成的证书对所有通讯进行加密。同时还将配置Passenger来使系统的Ruby解释器并且提供Rack配置文件config.ru的路径

[root@puppetserver rack]# chown puppet. /etc/puppet/rack/puppetmaster/config.ru #Rack配置文件config.ru的用户和组应该是puppet。当Apache启动时，Passenger会检查这个文件的所有者，并将其使用的账号从root切换到权限较低的puppet账户。[root@puppetserver ~]# /etc/rc.d/init.d/puppetmaster stop #停止puppetmaster进程
[root@puppetserver ~]# chkconfig puppetmaster off #防止开机自动启动
[root@puppetserver ~]# /etc/rc.d/init.d/httpd start #启动apache服务
[root@puppetserver ~]# chkconfig httpd off #设置开机自动启动
[root@puppetserver ~]# netstat -nlp | grep 8140 #监听8140端口
tcp 0 0 :::8140 :::* LISTEN 4162/httpd测试一：通过浏览器（IE版本<9）访问https://172.16.200.100:8140/，出现以下信息，说明配置正确
测试二：在节点上运行puppet程序，在服务器端通过apache访问日志查看是否有puppet的请求，如果返回状态吗“200”表明这次请求时成功的。
