I've just built a simple class to manage Postfix. That class is
included in "baseclass" which is included in my default node. My
intent is that "baseclass" and "basenode" install and configure all of
the packages that are common across all of my nodes. However, some of
the more specialized nodes will require a different Postfix config.
Since those nodes inherit the standard Postfix config included in
"basenode", what's the best way to configure them to retrieve a
different main.cf file for their Postfix install?
Do I need to create different Postfix classes for each of the types of
nodes that only differ by their "content =>" line? There must be a
cleaner way.
My current config is included below.
Thanks!

# classes/postfix.pp
class postfix {
package { "postfix": ensure => present }
service { "postfix": ensure => running }
file { "/etc/postfix/main.cf":
content => template("apps/postfix/main.cf.base.erb"),
notify => Service["postfix"],
require => Package["postfix"],
}
}
# classes/baseclass.pp
class baseclass {
include postfix
include vim
include basefiles
include sudo
include ntp::server
package {
"syslog-ng": ensure => present;
"tcsh": ensure => present;
}
}
# nodes.pp
node default {
include baseclass
}
