Puppet users - May 2010 - Symbolic Links not Followed Outside Partition?

Ok, I''ve got a repository of configuration files I use for my Linux
environment and would like to leverage this with Puppet (instead of
having dupes in my /module/*/files folder).
So, I''ve put symbolic links in the files folder pointing to the actual
config file. I''m receiving a "Failed to retrieve current state of
resource: Could not retrieve information from source(s)" when the file
which is being pointed to exists outside of the partition /etc/puppet
resides in. Is this expected?
I''m not having much luck using the "links => follow"
argument (which
is correct for what I''m trying to accomplish, no?). Could I see an
example of how to use this properly?

Thanks,
Dan
