You are getting a bunch of misguided answers to this. I'm also
perplexed by your assertion that external nodes requires you to write
custom scripts to parse node manifests.
No, you cannot put resources directly into nodes when you are using
external nodes. In practice, this hasn't mattered; you wr

Sadly, the documentation is the code, as far as I've been able to
determine. You can get a fair amount of information if you are using a
webserver like Apache in front of puppetmasterd by watching your

Over the weekend we noticed an interesting and unexpected behavior
with environments. I made a change to the way our puppet.conf file is
generated and distributed, which led to an environment which had been
defined on a puppetmaster being no longer defined in puppet.conf.
We'll call this the "core"
In case anyone is looking at this, Asif and I spent some time in
#puppet talking about this and we've eliminated:
* formatting of the YAML (whitespace, etc.)
