Installing from a URL is a feature of msiexec rather than the puppet

//files/

hi everyone, i'm trying to roll out an .exe file for the puppet package
provider "windows".
my manifest looks like this:
$package_source =
"http://puppet.local.domain/base_check_mk/windows/check-mk-agent-1.2.3i1.exe";
$package_name = "Check_MK Agent 1.2.3i1"
package { "$package_name"
