This should work in all versions of Ruby (YMMV)
'foo.bar.baz'.each_byte.map{|x| x}.join.to_i % 64511 + 1024

I'm doing this instead:
module Puppet::Parser::Functions
newfunction(:ip_port, :type => :rvalue) do |args|
require 'zlib'
Zlib.crc32(args[0]) % 64511 + 1024
end

Any suggestions on how I can get the hash of the string content itself so I
can get this function to work? I really just don't want to manage ports
anymore.

Hi Peter,
Object.hash in Ruby provides the hash of the Object ID, not a consistent
cryptographic hash of the string provided.
Try it in two different IRB sessions and you'll see what I mean. It will
change between garbage collection runs and/or at every invocation of Puppet
if done in cron.
