I have several systems I manage. I'm always making changes to things
like /etc/hosts, /etc/sysconfig, /etc/httpd/conf, etc.
I was thinking. Would it work to create a master configuration directory
with sym links to all the common config files, then import this to cvs.
Then when something stops working, you can do a diff to see what it was.
If a system update (i.e. rpm) provides a new mail.cf file, you can see
what customizations you've had, and merge them in.
Anyone done this? Any problems? Security? Probably don't want a public
cvs server to do this, right? Any problems using symlinks for CVS files?
TIA,
