Occasionally I disable regular puppetd runs on a system by doing:
<pre>
# puppetd --disable
</pre>

This works fine, except that it could be improved in two ways:

1. If it has been manually disabled, then when a run is attempted, it should 
print something more useful than this:
<pre>
notice: Run of Puppet configuration client already in progress; skipping
</pre>
because well... that message isn't really true, its not in progress, rather it 
is currently disabled.

2. The something more useful that it could print could be either a default 
message "notice: Puppet administratively disabled on this system; skipping", or 
a custom message that you can pass to the puppetd --disable, eg. "puppetd 
--disable micah is fixing stunnel template" would then print the following when 
a puppetd was running: "notice: Puppet is administratively disabled because 
micah is fixing stunnel template; skipping run"
