Oddly enough, you can't depend on rspec-puppet to configure the settings
for spec test. For example, puppetlab's spec helper configures the
modulepath [1] to include spec/fixtures/modules, but this does not seem to
configure Puppet[:modulepath] setting. For whatever reason, puppet loads
the modules correctly from spec/fixtures/modules, but when you debug the
spec test, it appears to set the module path to:

(rdb:1) p Puppet[:modulepath]
"/dev/null/modules:/usr/share/puppet/modules"

You can do what Wolf suggested. File server conf is somewhat inconsistent,
since the setting is actually: Puppet[:fileserverconfig].

HTH,
