 Next, the server must be configured to intepret the report results.  We'll tell it which reports to run by giving it a comma-separated list of reports we want to run against the client-submitted data.  Again, we can do this from the command line, like so:
 
-    $ puppetmasterd --reports tagmail, daily, security
+    $ puppetmasterd --reports tagmail,daily,security
 
+or you might enclose the list of reports in quotes:
+
