Another approach: install via a package, e.g. via a .rpm or .msi. > Can anybody share his work on such a thing ?

Assuming the laptop has space for everything under /usr/local, rsync might be used. Or, put the software in packages, and let the configuration management/user juggle what gets installed. > User home directories ( on filer ) and authentication ( LDAP ) are on > the network. How you deal with that ? I use module:users, which "conducts" local user accounts according to central policies. The module also lets me customize user account information (shell, home directory) by cfengine class, so laptop class systems can use a different home directory than NFS or AFS systems. _______________________________________________ Help-cfengine mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/help-cfengine
