[Puppet Users] Puppet client not listening on port 8139

Hi everyone,

Please help, I have built a new server and installed puppet (2.6.17)
running on RHEL 6.3. It seems that it is not listening on port 8139.

iptables -L:
Chain INPUT (policy ACCEPT)
target prot opt source destination

Chain FORWARD (policy ACCEPT)
target prot opt source destination

Chain OUTPUT (policy ACCEPT)
target prot opt source destination

/etc/puppet/puppet.conf:
[main]
# The Puppet log directory.
# The default value is '$vardir/log'.
logdir = /var/log/puppet

# Where Puppet PID files are kept.
# The default value is '$vardir/run'.
rundir = /var/run/puppet

# Where SSL certificates are kept.
# The default value is '$confdir/ssl'.
ssldir = $vardir/ssl

[agent]
# The file in which puppetd stores a list of the classes
# associated with the retrieved configuratiion. Can be loaded in
# the separate ``puppet`` executable using the ``--loadclasses``
# option.
# The default value is '$confdir/classes.txt'.
classfile = $vardir/classes.txt

# Where puppetd caches the local configuration. An
# extension indicating the cache format is added automatically.
# The default value is '$confdir/localconfig'.
localconfig = $vardir/localconfig
listen = true
server = mypuppet server.fqdn

/etc/puppet/namespaceauth.conf:
[puppetmaster]
allow mypuppet server.fqdn

/etc/puppet/auth.conf:
# This is an example auth.conf file, it mimics the puppetmasterd defaults
#
# The ACL are checked in order of appearance in this file.
#
# Supported syntax:
# This file supports two different syntax depending on how
# you want to express the ACL.
#
# Path syntax (the one used below):
# ---------------------------------
# path /path/to/resource
# [environment envlist]
# [method methodlist]
# [auth[enthicated] {yes|no|on|off|any}]
# allow [host|ip|*]
# deny [host|ip]
#
# The path is matched as a prefix. That is /file match at
# the same time /file_metadat and /file_content.
#
# Regex syntax:
# -------------
# This one is differenciated from the path one by a '~'
#
# path ~ regex
# [environment envlist]
# [method methodlist]
# [auth[enthicated] {yes|no|on|off|any}]
# allow [host|ip|*]
# deny [host|ip]
#
# The regex syntax is the same as ruby ones.
#
# Ex:
# path ~ .pp$
# will match every resource ending in .pp (manifests files for instance)
#
# path ~ ^/path/to/resource
# is essentially equivalent to path /path/to/resource
#
# environment:: restrict an ACL to a specific set of environments
# method:: restrict an ACL to a specific set of methods
# auth:: restrict an ACL to an authenticated or unauthenticated request
# the default when unspecified is to restrict the ACL to authenticated
requests
# (ie exactly as if auth yes was present).
#

### Authenticated ACL - those applies only when the client
### has a valid certificate and is thus authenticated

# allow nodes to retrieve their own catalog (ie their configuration)
path ~ ^/catalog/([^/]+)$
method find
allow $1

# allow all nodes to access the certificates services
path /certificate_revocation_list/ca
method find
allow *

# allow all nodes to store their reports
path /report
method save
allow *

# Puppetrun settings
path /run
allow mypuppet server fqdn

# inconditionnally allow access to all files services
# which means in practice that fileserver.conf will
# still be used
path /file
allow *

### Unauthenticated ACL, for clients for which the current master doesn't
### have a valid certificate

# allow access to the master CA
path /certificate/ca
auth no
method find
allow *

path /certificate/
auth no
method find
allow *

path /certificate_request
auth no
method find, save
allow *

# this one is not stricly necessary, but it has the merit
# to show the default policy which is deny everything else
path /
auth any

It seems as though the puppet is running:
4074 ? Ss 0:00 /usr/bin/ruby /usr/sbin/puppetd
--server=mypuppetserver.fqdn --logdest=/var/log/puppet/puppet.log

But I cant even telnet to port 8139 on the localhost to test that the port
is open.

Can any one please help?

Any suggestions welcome, I have copied the /etc/puppet/*.conf files from
another working server.

Please Help!
