Okay, so what is VMWARE and is there someplace I can get a free download?
I have just downloaded ASPLinux, will this Linux plateform run as you have just described?
Thanks again for the info.

You could run Linux as the main OS then use VMware to allow win98 to run on top of linux.
Alternatively you could run it the other way around however, win98 isn't that stable, therefore any crashes in win98 could bring Vmware down along with Linux.
The third option would be to use separate machines, you can pickup second hand PCs relatively cheaply so this might be more cost efficient than the previous options.

PUPPET-PLUGIN(8) Puppet manual PUPPET-PLUGIN(8)
NAME
puppet-plugin - Interact with the Puppet plugin system.
SYNOPSIS
puppet plugin action
DESCRIPTION
This subcommand provides network access to the puppet master's store of plugins.
The puppet master serves Ruby code collected from the lib directories of its modules. These plugins can be used on agent nodes to extend
Facter and implement custom types and providers. Plugins are normally downloaded by puppet agent during the course of a run.
OPTIONS
Note that any configuration parameter that's valid in the configuration file is also a valid long argument, although it may or may not be
relevant to the present action. For example, server is a valid configuration parameter, so you can specify --server <servername> as an
argument.
See the configuration file documentation at http://docs.puppetlabs.com/references/stable/configuration.html for the full list of acceptable
parameters. A commented list of all configuration options can also be generated by running puppet with --genconfig.
--mode MODE
The run mode to use for the current action. Valid modes are user, agent, and master.
--render-as FORMAT
The format in which to render output. The most common formats are json, s (string), yaml, and console, but other options such as dot
are sometimes available.
--verbose
Whether to log verbosely.
--debug
Whether to log debug information.
ACTIONS
download - Download plugins from the puppet master.
SYNOPSIS
puppet plugin download
DESCRIPTION
Downloads plugins from the configured puppet master. Any plugins downloaded in this way will be used in all subsequent Puppet activ-
ity. This action modifies files on disk.
RETURNS
A list of the files downloaded, or a confirmation that no files were downloaded. When used from the Ruby API, this action returns an
array of the files downloaded, which will be empty if none were retrieved.
EXAMPLES
download
Retrieve plugins from the puppet master:
$ puppet plugin download
Retrieve plugins from the puppet master (API example):
$ Puppet::Face[:plugin, '0.0.1'].download
