[Puppet Users] Double quotes within an exec statement

Hello all,

I''ve been trying to run this exec statement (which to my peril was
initially thought to be something simple):

exec { "/opt/pbis/bin/config UserDomainPrefix "" " :  }

After the command is run I''m getting the following error:

err: Could not retrieve catalog from remote server: Error 400 on SERVER:
Syntax error at '''' ''; expected ''}''
at
/etc/puppet/modules/powerbroker_install/manifests/init.pp:20 on node
sbxwk-blackhole.sbx.leiproductions.com

I need to run the command with the double quotes as the value of
UserDomainPrefix but I''m having a hard time getting this one to run.  I
figured if I changed to the command below, puppet wouldn''t interpret
the
double quotes and things would work but I was quite wrong.

exec { " ''/opt/pbis/bin/config UserDomainPrefix ""
''  " :  }

Does anybody have any suggestions as to how one might run an exec with
double quotes?

As always, thanks for the help in advance.

Cheers,

Mike
