Bug #14681: File and Exec cannot work within root squashed NFS mounts
https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/14681#change-64412

Neither File or Exec will work in an NFS mounted root squashed folder.   

File operates as root and cannot access the files pointed to regardless of the 
owner setting.  It needs to have a user setting to operate as another user.

Exec can execute commands as another user but if the root squash user, usually 
'nobody' doesn't have permissions to view the directory of the command 
specified it will fail with "Could not find command".   All operation of the 
exec type need to operate as the specified user.
