Hi John, thanks for the reply. Yes we just want to reset it and ignore
it. I realize this isn't the best (or intended) way of using puppet
but it works :) and we don't have mcollective right now. Hopefully
someday will have mcollective but from what I've read Solaris support
is still weak and I don't have the time at the moment into trying to
get it working on solaris. I also realize that solaris support is in
the PE version of puppet/mcollective but I've first got to "sell"
puppet to management before we start talking about purchasing PE.

Also, point well taken on the NIS/LDAP central authentication, but at
this point that big of an infrastructure change is not in the cards.
