Hi guys,

I'm about to set up a puppet instance for handling a large number of environment. I've set up the following puppet master configuration:

[master]

manifestdir = $confdir/environments/$environment/manifests

templatedir = $confdir/environments/$environment/templates

modulepath = $confdir/modules:$confdir/environments/$environment/modules

The problem is that in the $confdir directory, I'll end up with a large number of sub directories and I'd like to hash them with something like:

$confdir/environments/f/fo/foo

$confdir/environments/b/ba/bar

Do you have any ideas on how to achieve this ?

Thanks

PS: I'll need a lot of environements because I'll have to handle a lots of servers managed by many differents users. And I want to give users to clone environements for testing and validation purpose.
