Oh and read the New user manifest tips. It's a thread on the list
currently (aka work in progress) but it should give you a heads-up for
common rookie mistakes.

You should use modules, they get the stuff more organized, not a

hehe ;)
http://reductivelabs.com/trac/puppet/wiki/ModuleOrganisation - this
documentation is a tad old, but the only thing different now is that you
should use lib instead of plugins (if you will need those) in the
directory structure.
If you use templates use the template function not the file function.
But I don't know why you would have a template instead of a file in this
case
Yes, the file() was just one try. I am using the templates function. And
I wrote my own function which chomps the newline.
All in all it not very easy to build modules which reflect an existing
infrastructure. For example if you have apache installed, then you may
wand a monit-configuration too. But puppet is not designed to detect if
apache is installed, it will install apache itslef and then
automatically monit.
So I have to start with some basic things which are common on all
machines (>500).
Thank you for your help, i am sure, i will ask more advanced questions
in future ;)
