I'm sure people have hit this problem before. In my nagios module, the
nagios command pipe file at /var/lib/nagios3/rw/nagios.cmd is owned by
the nagios user, but needs to be written to by the www-data user.
Adding the www-user to the nagios group is one solution, but that
requires that the nagios module potentially modify the www-data user,
which seems bad.

What's the best way to do this? I tried to explicitly define the
www-data user in it's own class, and then create another nagios class
that inherits from that so that I could do plusignment, but I
obviously have the syntax wrong. Puppet doesn't like this.

class nagios::users inherits users::www-data {
     User['www-data'] { group +> ['nagios'] }
}
