+# This is an example proposed Puppet Common Module for SSH
+#
+# Usage Requirements:
+# 1) Set $server in site.pp
+#    Allows for a different fileserver than the real puppetmaster
+# 2) Set $os to $operatingsystem
+#    Saves typing, purely cosmetic
+# 3) Set $osver to $operatingsystemrelease or $lsbdistrelease
+#    $operatingsystemrelease is not available on all platforms
+#
