							|  |  |  | ----------- | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | This document helps you to take the first steps with cdist. | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | We'll begin to configure the host "localhost" to have two files | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | in place, /etc/DO-NOT-CHANGE and /root/CDIST-ENABLED-HOST, which | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | both are used to warn other sysadmins that this system is managed | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | by configuration management and manual changes may get overwritten. |
