Puppet generally does a good job of choosing the right provider, so it is 
rarely necessary to specify one explicitly.  That's especially so for 
RedHat variants, which tend to be well tested and well supported.  In 
particular, I have never needed to specify a Service provider explicitly 
for CentOS 5.x / 6.x clients.

Furthermore, it is a matter of good style to quote parameter values, but it 
is not actually necessary to do so for many of them, especially those that 
are strictly alphanumeric.

Since the manifests work on a large number of boxes and fail only on one, 
it seems likely that there's something strange about the odd system that's 
causing the problem.  Is the Puppet running as root, or at least as a 
sufficiently-privileged user?  Speaking of privilege, is SELinux running in 
enforcing mode?
