Put the classes, types, and resources for customizing, configuring, and doing the fancy stuff with your module here.

Limitations

On RHEL 6, if the changes are replace on puppet.conf with template and smart class parameters, notify to restart service puppet results in error.

puppet dead but pid file exists

As a workaround, /etc/puppet/puppet_restart.sh will be created with service puppet stop/start.
