That fixed it. Oh, I think I see what's going on:
When I run `puppet httpd.pp`, it runs `ps` and finds a process with `httpd` in the name and so concludes the service is running. If I rename the script to something else then Puppet no longer finds any process with 'httpd' in its name. Perhaps Puppet should have a check that prevents thinking it is the satisfying service?
