Re: Puppet, Chef or CFEngine?

I'm glad to see this discussion because I was just starting to research using Puppet or Chef to help manage a new web server environment I helped to build. I've not used either before. We have a small number of servers so far and scripts are fine for now but using one of these tools would make my l

Re: Puppet, Chef or CFEngine?

Has anyone had any experience using Puppet to manage read-only root / diskless clients? RedHat / CentOS used to have a utility to do this (system-config-notboot), but it has been deprecated as of 6.0. Reading through 5.7's rc.sysinit, it makes references to moving towards using Puppet to manage t
