NAME

cdist - Configuration distribution system
DESCRIPTION
-----------
Cdist allows you to centrally define a configurations for
UNIX systems and apply them. Cdist generally uses the push
approach (a server pushes out the configuration to the clients),
but can also be used the pull way (see cdist-push-pull(7)).
Cdist is configured in shell syntax, which is "compiled" to an
internal configuration representation (cdist-cconfig(7)), which again
is used to generate an executable, which is run on the client
(see cdist-language(7), cdist-design(7)).
To get your fingers dirty with cdist very quick, have
a look at cdist-quickstart(7).
REQUIREMENTS
------------
Cdist requires enabled ssh-server and a posix shell on the clients and
ssh-client and posix shell on the server. Additionaly, it requires
the following unix tools:
- find
-
