Hi Robert,
I'm only new to puppet so I'm not sure if this is what you are after but
would the folowing work?
file {
smbshares:
path => "/etc/samba/shares.conf",
source => $hostname ? {
nodename1 => ["puppet:///samba/shares/nodename1.conf",
"puppet:///samba/shares/default.conf"],
nodename2 => ["puppet:///samba/shares/nodename2.conf",
"puppet:///samba/shares/default.conf"],
default => "puppet:///samba/shares/default.conf",
};
}
This way it would check for the file called nodename1.conf then failing
that it would look for the default.
Cheers,
Henry

add or create custom shares I drop a file in modules/samba/files/shares
named after the hostname of the target machine and then place the
corresonding line in the file block above. It works pretty well, but
since the file is named after the hostname I was thinking it would be
pretty slick if that part were a little more dynamic.
