Where does the file exist on the filesystem?
This is somewhat counter-intuitive until you do it a few times. The
source path in the manifest is:
puppet:///modules/ntp/ntp.conf
but in the filesystem, the file should be under
modules/ntp/files/ntp.conf
You may have missed the "files" in there on the filesystem. At first
glance the URL is just a straight path, but Puppet treats it more like
a list of arguments that it processes.
Also, you might find clues in the log files on the master, probably in
syslog somewhere.
