[Puppet Users] Problem dealing with multi role servers/manifests. resource already declared.

Hey All,


Im running into a road block with a server that is going to to be
multi role.

Example:

I want to run a nagios server and a repo server on one box.

My nagios manifest has two services defined:

class nagios::server {
...
service { nagios:
ensure => running,
...
}

service { httpd:
ensure => running
...
}
...
}


Now I also want to assign my reposerver manifest to a server already
running the nagios manifest

class repo::server {
...
service { httpd:
ensure => running
}
...
}


Now in each case I have files where httpd is notified to refresh...
Is there a way to work around this without creating a custom module
just for this one case? As you can see from the below error message I
tried changing the name and using an alias.. but it does not like that
either.

There error message:
Could not retrieve catalog from remote server: Error 400 on SERVER:
Puppet::Parser::AST::Resource failed with error ArgumentError: Cannot
