Opsware
Does anyone use something similar to Opsware to assist in managing their servers? I have roughly 15-20 servers, Solaris, Fedora, OpenBSD and FreeBSD, and I am looking for something that is similar to Opsware, but free/cheaper. This is for a community college, and our budget is 0, so I'm pretty limited on what I can buy. pgp1Jk9XfeZyr.pgp Description: PGP signature

You'll get better answers if you describe what you're trying to do, as opposed to mentioning an obscure product and expecting people to do their own research. Best I can tell, you're looking for something ala cfengine or puppet? http://www.cfengine.org/ http://reductivelabs.com/projects/puppet/ -- Bill Moran http://www.potentialtech.com ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Basically I am looking for a way to help automate patching, installing of software, audits, etc... pgp7v6ZQIpzSp.pgp Description: PGP signature
