Make your Vagrantfile pull from a common puppetserver rather than using local modules

Want to set a username and password in Puppet? Keep getting "You reset the password for a user 8m times" in your logs? This may be the gist for you! Only really works if you've got a consistent user salt across all your boxes :)
define createuser (
$username = $title,
$password = 'defaultpw',
$groups = ['users'],
$home = "/home/${username}"
$shell = '/bin/bash') {
user { $username:
ensure => present,
password => generate(

Need to use X as a user on a box after Sudo? Try this. Both files need putting somewhere in the path, and need chmod 755 owned by root.
