This is because it's good practice to keep the service from potentially overwriting its own configuration through some security flaw, meaning having the owner 'root', the group 'consul' and files mode 0640 and directories mode 0750 makes the most sense to keep everyting secure and private.
Note that this works for me because I deploy consul using an rpm where I have set the config directory to have mode 0750, but this is not something this Puppet module will be enforcing. Should a new
config_dir_mode
also be added, defaulting toundef
to keep backwards compatibility?
