Thanks Nan for your response.

So, can't we install the required module on a plain ubuntu machine
using puppet? Only procedure is to install the Puppet client on the
plain ubuntu machine and make it as a agent for the server and include
the node code in the server. Am I right? or is there any other
technique for that?

Thanks in advance,
Sateesh B.
