Sounds like a communications problem between us. Here's a more complete
example. Keep in mind that this isn't making anything much simpler. It just
moves it into more files. Also, every node sees every file.
site.pp:
#global site definitions
import "nodes"
#end site.pp----------------------
nodes.pp:
import "computer1"
import "computer2"
#end node.pp----------------------
computer1.pp:
node
'computer1.domain'
{
include module1
include module2
}
#end computer1.pp----------------------
computer2.pp:
node
'computer2.domain'
{
include module2
include module3
}
#end computer2.pp----------------------
