If I understand correctly, I think this is as much of a gnome/kde question as a puppet one.
GNOME To set a login message for gnome you can use gsettings: https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/7/html/Desktop_Migration_and_Administration_Guide/customizing-login-screen.html#displaying-text-banner To make gsettings changes via puppet there is this module that I haven't used: https://github.com/camptocamp/puppet-gnome KDE For KDE it seems to be set in kdmrc. Look at the manual around GreetString and related options. Use file_line or something, probably.
