+
+If you're a Puppet user you are supported in both facts and classes filters.
+
+There are a number of community plugins related to Puppet:
+
+ * Manage the Puppetd, request runs, enable and disable - [AgentPuppetd]
+ * Manage the Puppet CA, sign, list and revoke certificates - [AgentPuppetca]
+ * Use the Puppet Ral to create resources on demand, a distributed *ralsh* - [AgentPuppetRal]
+ * Schedule your puppetd's controlling concurrency and resource usage - [PuppetCommander]
+ * The [ServiceAgent] and [PackageAgent] use the Puppet RAL to function on many operating systems
+
+There are also several blog posts related to Puppet and MCollective:
+
+ * Running puppet on a number of nodes as quick as possible - [RapidRuns]
+ * Bootstrapping a Puppet + EC2 environment with Puppet - [EC2Bootstrap]
+ * Using the Puppet RAL with MCollective - [PuppetRalBlog]
+ * General scheduling of Puppet Runs - [SchedulingPuppet]
+ * Managing Puppetd - [ManagingPuppetd]
+ * Bootstrapping your cloud environment - [CloudBootstrap]
+
+## Facts
+There is a [community plugin to enable Facter][FactsRLFacter] as a fact source.
+
+So you can use the facts provided by Facter in filters, reports etc.
+
+{% highlight console %}
+$ mco find --with-fact lsbdistrelease=5.4
+{% endhighlight %}
+
+This includes facts pushed out with [Plugin Sync][PluginSync].
+
+A less resource intensive approach has can be found [here][Facter2YAML], it converts the Puppet scope into a YAML file that the YAML fact source then loads.  This is both less resource intensive and much faster.
+
+## Class Filters
+Puppet provides a list of classes applied to a node by default in */var/puppet/state/classes.txt* or */var/lib/puppet/state/classes.txt* (depending on which Puppet version you are using. The latter is true for 0.25.5 onwards) , we'll use this data with *--with-class* filters.
+
+You should configure MCollective to use this file by putting the following in your *server.cfg*
+
+
+{% highlight ini %}
+classesfile = /var/lib/puppet/classes.txt
+{% endhighlight %}
+
+or if using Puppet 0.23.0 and onwards
+
+{% highlight ini %}
+classesfile = /var/lib/puppet/state/classes.txt
+{% endhighlight %}
+
+You can now use your classes lists in filters:
+
+{% highlight console %}
+$ mco find --with-class /apache/
+{% endhighlight %}
