Puppet users - Mar 2013 - syntax problems trying to use Keith Burdis's erwbgy/system module without Hiera

I''m trying to use Keith Burdis''s excellent erwbgy/system
module without
Hiera, at least initially.

http://forge.puppetlabs.com/erwbgy/system

I cannot determine how call the modules.  From what I can tell the 
documentation isn''t quite correct (or I am reading it wrong). 
I''m trying
to start with ntp because that''s an easy to understand example.

https://github.com/erwbgy/puppet-ntp

The ntp documentation says 

<snip>
Specify a list of time servers to use:

class { ''ntp'':
  servers => [ ''ntp1.domain.com'',
''ntp2.domain.com'' ],
}
<endsnip>

If I enter it like this in my manifest, I get errors. I assume the correct 
syntax is something more like this 

<snip>
system::ntp { ''name'': 
  servers => [ ''ntp1.domain.com'',
''ntp2.domain.com'' ],
}
<endsnip>

but that syntax gets me this error
 Puppet::Parser::AST::Resource failed with error ArgumentError: Invalid 
resource type system::ntp at /etc/puppet/manifests/site.pp:36 on node

Any help with this would be appreciated..
thanks!

And just to have an answer on the list as well, the syntax in the docs is 
correct. Though it might be class { "system::ntp" in your case. Not
sure of
the specifics of that module.

This syntax is incorrect. Not "class ntp { ''ntp''".
Just "class { ''ntp''",
like it says in the docs. If that''s giving you an error, post it.

Good news.  I''d encourage people to file bug or feature requests on
GitHub
if they run into problems or have ideas for improvements.  Tutorial
documentation is coming Real Soon Now (TM) :-)

Keith,

What''s the equivalent non-hiera command to use ntp with your system
module
instead? 

If I try
class { ''system::ntp'': servers => [
''ntp1.domain.com'' ], }
I get
Invalid parameter servers at /etc/puppet/manifests/site.pp:36 

Thanks!

Most of the classes take a config hash parameter so this would be:

$ntp = {
  ''servers'' => [''ntp1.domain.com''],
}

class { ''system::ntp'':
  config => $ntp,
}

I use this internally and Byron showed me an example of how he used it with
Foreman.

I''m now trying to use system::sshd.
I can see that sshd takes a hash as a parameter instead of an array.
However, all my attempts to guess or otherwise determine the correct syntax 
are failing.
Here''s what I''ve got so far

$sshd = {
''AllowGroups'' :
                     value => [''root'' ,
''IT'', ''ENG''],
}
class { ''system::sshd'':
config => $sshd,
}

and I get the error:
Could not parse for environment dev: Syntax error at
''AllowGroups'';
expected ''}'' at /etc/puppet/manifests/site.pp:58

Thanks again in advance...

I gave up too soon... here is the correct syntax:
  $sshd = {
''AllowGroups'' => { ''value'' =>
[''root'' , ''IT'', ''ENG''] },
''PermitRootLogin'' => { ''value'' =>
''yes'' }
}
class { ''system::sshd'':
config => $sshd,
}
