Hi, You can use facts supplied by facter to do the following (assuming you want to do this for host with hostname host1).> puppet:///files/configuration_files/${hostname}/mystuff/test.sh'',You can also assign variables easily like: $host = ''host1'' And then use $host in your source statement. Depends on exactly what you want to do. The puppet docs cover all this very well.
