Thanks Dan. I thought Puppet may have a way to automagically search for a file based on environment first (e.g. modules/nfs/$environment/foo), then a default as specified by source (e.g. modules/nfs/foo). I can see how what you pasted helps, but it could become tedious having to specify the search path in various places.
