You should use a define or a parametrized class, that way you can get name to what you like (IMHO, should be a define):
define filename($template = "mytemplate.erb") {
file { $name:
content => template($template)
}
}
node 'host' {
filename { "/tmp/file1": }
filename { "/tmp/file2": }
}
And correct your template to:
Jack
John
James

puppet can use local information.. If you write a facter script that sets a fact.. you can reference that value from inside puppet.
Example
$ facter puppetversion
2.6.4
I can use $puppetversion in my template or pp file to get 2.6.4. Writing a facter script is pretty easy and you can use puppet to distribute the facter script to place it in the correct ...

Perhaps you should do this with a define?
class bootstrap {
define conf ( $israid= undef ) {
$loc = $name
file {
"$loc":
content => template(blah.erb);
}
}
}
then call it with
include bootstrap
bootstrap::conf {
"/loc":
israid => '-r yes \';
}
bootstrap::conf {
"/otherloc":
israid => '-r no \';
}

You could manually create your basic "template" and clone from it, but you should remember to remove "unique" data. For example:
configure the template for DHCP networking, you'll assign static IPs after the cloning
configure an hostname like "template01" and remember to change it after cloning
delete SSH host key files just before shutting down the ...

The easiest way is to get a tool like SharePoint Manager. Go into the site you are looking at, and find the WebTemplateId property. You can then match it up to a list of known template types.
There is another way to do it, but it is much more manual (and ugly) so I won't outline it here.
As far as a page template goes - this only works on pages within a ...

I do this now to add new nodes to my puppet master. For example, I grab the private IP of the puppet master instance in the UserData section of my new node:
"echo ", { "Fn::GetAtt" : [ "MasterOfPuppets", "PrivateIp" ] }, " ",
{ "Fn::GetAtt" : [ "MasterOfPuppets", "PrivateDnsName" ] } ," puppet
>> /etc/hosts\n","\n",

The easiest way to do this is to look at the scope.tags variable, and check for a member with the name of the class you're interested in. By default, a resource is tagged with it's type (like 'class' or 'type'), as well as the name of the defining resource (like 'sensor', or 'snuffler'). In my quick test I did something like this:
class other {
file { ...

The "scope" variable refers to the Puppet::Parser::Scope class, which also seems to keep track of the source. You can refer to it with scope.source.name:
class classname::foo {
notice(inline_template("scope='<%= scope.source.name %>'"))
}
prints
notice: Scope(Class[Classname::Foo]): scope='classname::foo'

Ubuntu uses adduser from Debian, and that program just does a straight up file copy from /etc/skel, so you're out of luck there. However, it does support hook scripts (look in adduser(8) for adduser.local), and you could write a little hook script that did a sed -i over some or all of the files in the newly-created home directory to do your text ...

However I cannot see where to specify
that my instance requires 64-bit
architecture in the template file.
Assuming you are addressing the example template downloadable via Create a Load-Balanced Apache Website, the instance type and architecture mappings are wired via these two tables:
"Mappings" : {
"AWSInstanceType2Arch" : {

Actually, I figured this out.
I had followed up with an answer to this on the AWS Cloudformation forum but I forgot (sorry) that this thread was also active.
The issue is that the ELB template example is incomplete - so when I copied it, my example was also incomplete: you need to specify an instance type (t1.micro for example, or m1.large) explicitly, or ...

Power off your machine, right-click it and select Template > Convert to Template, that's it. You can then right-click the template and Deploy ...

Do you really need to fiddle with prefix? If you need two (or more) apaches with different configurations, you can just point apache to different config files and server roots using command-line options:
-d directory : specify an alternate initial ServerRoot
-f file : specify an alternate ServerConfigFile

Your code will be executed in the context of a node, so your Ruby code (Dir.foreach) will need to examine the node's local cache. In my Chef installation, the local cache path is required for my chef-client configuration template, so I have this attribute: node[:chef][:cache_path].
So:
