Hi all
I'm replacing a Solaris 8 server (mostly BIND) with an EL5 server. The
EL5 box has SELinux configured.
The Solaris 8 server used SCCS to do revision control. I've tried RCS
and CVS (my fu is very weak with these) and found the following:
- when you check in a file (i.e named.conf or a zone file) it gets moved
to a subdir or renamed
- the SELinux context of the file changes
- file ownership changes from named:named to the name of the user doing
the checkin.
CVS (and SVN) allow for the "repo" to be elsewhere where there may be
different users and ACLs. The behaviour you see is what I would expect.
RCS should do what you want, if you "runuser" appropriately.
I have never used SCCS, but I did once buy and try to read a book
describing/comparing it and RCS. It left me fairly confused, but I
imagine that you can get SCCS for Linux.
Any one else doing this successfully? What tools are you using?
cfengine gets mentioned. There's something "better than cfengine" that
I've seen around. It might be puppet (which might be in Fedora, I think
I've seen it mentioned recently), it might be something else.
SystemConfigurator is another possibility
