The puppet editor tips page seems to suggest that using eclipse & dltk (presumably the ruby tools) will assist with editing .pp files.

I can't see any difference or get syntax highlighting with DLTK 1.0 and the ruby plugins installed. Is there something I'm missing or eclipse configuration I need to set for it to start doing syntax highlighting and validation of my puppet model?
There appear to be some intermittent problems with our hosting company DNS. Is the following DNS response a valid CNAME response?
When proxied through home ISP and router this seems to flip intermittently between an NXDOMAIN response and a NOERROR + CNAME resolution. My hunch is that the correct behaviour when receiving NXDOMAIN and CNAME in a single response is undefined and I'm getting a different response based on the machines my query has gone through.
