Puppet users - Jun 2009 - Ensure overriden service after exec has run

Hi,
How do I force my Service declaration (with is defined elsewhere and
inherited) is run after an exec has run?

The code;
class autofs_nis::services inherits services::base {
    Service[''ypbind''] {
        ensure => running,
        enable=> true,
    }
    .....
}

class autofs_nis::exec inherits services::base {
    exec { "setdomainname":
        command => "domainname blanked",
        path => "/bin",
        unless => "[[ $(domainname) == \"blanked\" ]]",
    }
}

Open to suggestions to do this differently.

My original email didn''t explain my problem very well.
I''m just looking for a bit of advice on how to implement the
following;

How do I force my Service declaration (which is defined elsewhere and
inherited) to run after an exec has run?

ypbind is already defined as a service elsewhere so I inherit the
class it''s defined in and override it to be running.  This should only
happen after the exec below has run.
class autofs_nis::services inherits services::base {
    Service[''ypbind''] {
        ensure => running,
        enable=> true,
    }
    .....
}

class autofs_nis::exec {
    exec { "setdomainname":
        command => "domainname blanked",
        path => "/bin",
        unless => "[[ $(domainname) == \"blanked\" ]]",
    }
}

I''ve tried inheriting two classes but that doesn''t work.
I''ve looked for before parameters on the exec - there isn''t
one.
I''ve looked for after on the service - there isn''t one.

There is one. All types understand meta-parameters.

It''s called require, not after.
Have a look to the meta-parameter documentation:
