Puppet users - Oct 2012 - ERB template, both client and master data

Hi all,

I''m trying to build a motd template for all my linux machines.
This should contain two type of variables:
- client side (from facter), like operatingsystem and architecture
- supplied by the master, after parsing a text file (or querying a
mysql db), like description and location.

So. Where are the template variables evaluated? On the client or on the master?

Any hints on how I can do this?

Thanks.

The template function is evaluated on the server, but you do have access to 
the facter variables that are generated on the client.

Kind regards,
Ger.
