cdist(7) ======== Nico Schottelius 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 - SEE ALSO -------- Website: http://www.nico.schottelius.org/cdist/[] COPYING ------- Copyright \(C) 2010-2011 Nico Schottelius.
