From: "Michelle Lowman" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>Is anyone here using Python in system administration? Better yet, is anyone also writing about it?The Gentoo folks have it so that their entire package management system is built in Python. That's fairly heavy system administration , right? The main problem with using Python for stuff like this is that it's not guaranteed to be there, while /bin/sh is. (You see a lot of tired old Unix admins griping about the Linux users putting bash-specific things in their scripts, for example....)
I think most of RedHat's rpm tools are written in Python. yum, rpmbuild, etc.
