Felix Thanks for the pointers there...
As discussed on #puppet-dev, I've managed to get it working with the following code: https://gist.github.com/fatmcgav/8864343 However it does raise the question of "Is this the most optimal method to handle this scenario?" As it means iterating the entire catalog for each resource that wants to auto-require another resource. In a practical application, I could see 6+ resources of different types that might want to autorequire the domain resource. Is there a more efficient method to pull out specific resource types from the catalogue? Or is the overhead from this operation likely to be soo small as not to worry? Cross posting to Puppet-dev mailing list for comment aswell.
