I am using the nagios puppet module to create and manage services via 
stored configurations.  The original module, stored all service cheks in 
one file and this was causing my puppet run on my nagios server to take 30+ 
minutes.  I have read here (
http://pieter.barrezeele.be/2009/05/11/puppet-and-nagios/) that if you 
split up the services files into multiple, puppet can run faster since it 
doesn't have to look through one huge file.  I would like to split this up 
by host.  (i.e. nagios_service_$::fqdn.cfg)  One issue I am running into, 
is that the file that is created  using the target method has the 
permissions of root:root 600, and thus nagios will crash when trying to 
read it since it does not have permissions.  The original nagios_service 
file is controlled via the following...  

I could add each hostname below, but that does not scale well.  Is there 
another way in which this can be more easily managed?

 file{[ "${nagios::defaults::vars::int_cfgdir}/conf.d/nagios_command.cfg",
          
 "${nagios::defaults::vars::int_cfgdir}/conf.d/nagios_contact.cfg",
