The Puppet Language Guide specifies exactly how nodes are matched to node definitions: 1) If a literal node name matches the node exactly then that is used, otherwise 2) If one or more node name regexes matches the node then the first of those is used, otherwise 3) If there is a default node definition then that is used. That seems like what you want, except the inheritance. I don't know whether it is possible to inherit a regex node definition, but you can certainly solve that problem as you show in your example above. All told, you appear already to have it right. Is it not working for you? A bit more explanation of the problem would help us help you. John -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
