Can I override files specified in a module on a per-client basis?
Suppose I have a module that is to be installed on a large number of
clients, and one of the files it provides is /x/y/z. One a very small
number of clients, that file needs to be slightly modified. What I want to
do in the module,

Hi,
I've stumbled across the following behavior which I don't really
understand: classes that are automatically "imported" (thanks to
modulepath, ...) are not "really/fully" included.
If I iterate over the classes and tags variables in a template:
<% classes.each do |c| -%>
Class: <%= c %>

Zach,
Chris Moates did an interesting presentation on Puppet during CPOSC a
few months back. I was actually looking at his slides for a refresher
the other day. You might find something useful in there as far as
reasons to use Puppet. He lists quite a few and why its beneficial.
You can grab a P

Benoit,
If you want to globally change the value of a variable something that
may either be a feature or a bug(?) is to pass it through an ERB and
use a '!' ruby statement.
It changes it in memory until the puppetmaster is restarted.
I.e.
$myvar = 'foo'
define bar ($stupidvar = "nil" ) {

So, can we officially call it a feature?
I've been avoiding using it because I thought that it was a problem
but it does get around the "can't change a variable" issue. You just
have to be *really* careful about changing it.

Um, sure
Ok.
About the external nodes, why doesn't it possible to use definition ?
I use definition to create an instance of tomcat for exemple. So I'd
like to be able to create a node with 2 or more instances.
Why there is this limitation ?

So we've been tossing around the idea of rsyncing our puppet manifests
onto our laptop clients and always running puppet locally.
This is primarily due to having conditional puppet manifests that
depend upon facts that may change when the clients are offline, so the
compiled catalog doesn't chang
