The Type and Provider are both in the network module, which is in my module
path. I've performed an 'include network' from the cluster class which is
where I'm trying to use them. Just for grins, I also tried copying the
entire lib/puppet structure from the network module to the cluster module so
the custom type & provider information would be local to the cluster
module. This didn't work either. What else should I check?
### From Server puppet.conf
# cat /etc/puppet/puppet.conf
[main]
pluginsync = true
### From Client puppet.conf
# cat /etc/puppet/puppet.conf
[main]
pluginsync = true
### The directory structure containing the custom type & provider
/usr/share/puppet/environments/testing/modules/network/lib/puppet
# tree -fi
.
./provider
./provider/network_config
./provider/network_config/interfaces.rb
./provider/network_config/network_scripts.rb
./provider/network_interface
./provider/network_interface/ip.rb
./type
./type/network_config.rb
./type/network_interface.rb
