So true... ;-)
If there are only those two flavors of nsswitch.conf files in your
network (or very few more), you might put it in a class of its own:
class nsswitch_conf { file { "/etc/nsswitch.conf": content => "..." } }
Then add the proper passwd line in a subclass:
class nsswitch_conf_winbind inherits nsswitch_conf {
File["/etc/nsswitch.conf"] {
content => "...\npasswd: files windbind ldap\n..."
}
}
This approach is limited, but you could as well use your template in the
nsswitch_conf class and set different variables in the subclass.
(Remember to still use the override as sketched above, simply setting
variables will do no good in a subclass). That still saves you from the
scoping and order fuss.
Each of your nodes will include nsswitch_conf per default, an in your
ldap client class, you will additionally include nsswitch_conf_winbind.
