Thanks to both of you. We don't use Puppet for all our hosts and
adding it for those which don't need it so far is a bit of an
overkill.

Actually I'd rather try to reduce our dependence on puppet (and
possibly replace it with "rollout", http://code.google.com/p/rollout/,
or gradually improve our own home-grown scripts).

Thanks,
