Here is my situation: 

1. We use Active directory (LDAP) to store all user info which is retrieved 
from linux
2.  A home directory is not created until the first time the user logs into the 
linux system


I am using the ssh_authorized_key type to push out my ssh keys to every system. 
 However, because I haven't logged into every system at least once.  Puppet 
errors out due to a missing home directory when trying to create the 
authorized_keys file.  The simple remedy is to login to the box and have the 
home directory created (su - username).  However, I  would like the 
ssh_authorized_key type to not fail but just give a notice.  (home directory 
does not exist, skipping) therefore the reports don't show errors and give 
misleading errors in the reports.  

ssh_authorized_key{ "billys key":
                    ensure => present,
                    key => 'billys sshkey',
                    name => "super duper key",
                    type => ssh-rsa,
                    user =>"billy",
                    onlyif => "test -d /home/${user}"
                    }

I am assuming that I can refer to the user with ${user} and that onlyif is a 
valid parameter.

Is this possible?
