I am new to using cfengine and have a question/request.
I would like to use cfengine to manage files on a group of systems.
I want to:
- maintain a central or master section
- Allow the addition of a local section, or single entries
- Allow local entries to override the master entries
- Eliminate duplicate entries
>From what I know of cfengine, I am thinking of creating a kind of work
directory where I would store both the local and master copies on each
system. I would maintain a check sum database for the local file. If
either file changes, I would update the copies in the work directory.
I now need to write a script to assemble the files into the actual system
config file.
Is anyone doing anything similar to this?
Would you be willing to share scripts/templates?
Thanks.
