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).
