Yeah, bastion01 is a puppet client. This means that all it does is runs
from cron puppet client and pulls config from lockbox01. The puppet
command line is pretty terse and not very useful unless you can run it
as root generally.

It should be under /srv/web/trac/projects/freemedia/

The trac files under there are the ini file, and the sqlite db that has
all the data for tickets, etc in it.

Yep. It does. We should probibly clarify that in the document. 
Our puppet repo has tons of history and we haven't made it public, so
checkouts and such should all be done from a shell on lockbox01.

Yeah, that won't work. The puppet repo isn't public. I don't think
there's much in it directly that would be sensitive, but it has a long
long history and there could well be things we don't want to make
public in that history. ;( 

On the other hand our new ansible repo we are making public from the
start. ;) 

Hope that helps, please do feel free to ask more...
