Groups without users

[Systemgeek-louis]

I have a bunch of application users who share the same gid. But the gid is not associated with a user. It would be great if this module could create the group then the users.

Ditto, it would be nice to manage groups as well as users this way (so we could have multiple includes/requires on the users_* and group_*) in our puppet infrastructure.

Has anyone had any thought into how to format the site.pp file for supporting groups? I've been working on a fix to support adding groups but I'm now stuck at the best option for syntax.

Without breaking anything groups { my_group: } could be used. But that doesn't seem the best method. I'm very new to Puppet, so bare that in mind if you look at my fork.

Any ideas?
