Thanks for the replies, I can see that there is no "easy" setup to allow what I'm looking for :-( I will be looking a bit more on the External Node Classifier to see if this will solve my problem.
We will be using puppet to fully automate everything that has to be performed on servers, so I will not be interested in using a different system to do the app-deployment than to do the OS deployment. I was hoping that maybe it was possible to do this task through the Dashboard, but I discovered that it was only a standard htpassword setup without any group knowledge or ACLs on nodes.
