I thought it should work at least for the 'puppet agent' commands...
# cat manifests/site.pp
import "templates"
import "nodes"
import "modules"
root@ubuntu:/etc/puppet# cat manifests/templates.pp
class baseclass {
}
node default {
include baseclass
include ntp
include facts
}
and the nodes all have
include baseclass
in them
