Very likely you are missing something. Puppet should not even be reading both the configure.pp files unless the classes therein are both assigned to your node, directly or indirectly. Since you created one module by duplicating the other, my guess would be that you missed changing one or more namespaces in the copy, leaving them referring to the original module. For example, you might have something like this: ldap_alt/manifests/foo.pp: ----------------------------------- class ldap_alt::foo { # oops: include 'ldap::configure' ... } You could try grepping ldap_alt's manifest for the string "ldap::".
