Hi Folks,

If there is any interest I can do a puppet demo.

Basically you can manage and enforce policies across your solaris/bsd/linux
machines and have a solid policy across all of your machines.  With puppet
you
can from start of install deploy a new machine and configure it and have it
up and running in about
1 minute (or less!);  completely configured with your
ldap/ossec/snmp/default
firewall/patch management/ssh policies/motd's and much more.

(1 minute or less using BASIC templated installs which auto-run connect to
puppet).  These would run under bsd jails or linux openvz or solaris zones.

You can from one console manage redhat/debian/ubuntu/gentoo/solaris/bsd and
have
a secure homogenous environment across all of your machines.

I deployed this also with cfengine2 so if people are interested I could also
show how to do cfengine2.  But having quite a bit of experience with both I
have settled on puppet for configuration management over cfengine2.  (I also
have tried cfengine3 as well).

If anyone is interested I can set people up with a base template to get
going
and show how to manage a enterprise linux/bsd/solaris environment without
cornering yourself into one operating system.  You CAN support all *nix's
without going into overload and doing onesies and twosies and having "this
special system" or "that special system".

(I can also do cacert approval's as I can give maximum points if you get
your
paperwork ready ahead of time)

Myron
