Hi Maritn, thanks for answering. 

Yes, that's the sort of thing I was expecting to see.... But, I have no 
such fact listed.  

I wondered if this was a consequence of having an old copy of puppet agent 
installed - the box I'm testing on is running 3.5 - but the lists of 'core 
facts'; on puppet's website don't list an 'environment' fact, and I can't 
find any fact in the PE console's fact dialog box.  Have I misunderstood 
your comment?

Thanks
