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?
