Hi there-

I find myself using definitions more and more, and classes less even
when a class will do.
One of the reasons is that you can pass arguments to definitions,
whereas with a class you have to set a global variable. Are there any
plans to allow classes in puppet to take a constructor, or something

After doing some Google digging, I saw that there were a couple urls like
this:

Now this doesn't work on mine, but I think it is because the url format is

The issue in my case was that I ran puppet and *then* changed
somethings in /etc/hosts. But, the first time I ran puppetd on the

host/domain info. Simply deleting it solved the issue.
