[NBLUG/talk] [OT] SoCoSA Meeting: Tue Aug 7: Automating System Administration w/Puppet

[Eric Eisenhart]

Hey NBLUGers...

Thought this talk tomorrow might be of interest to a lot of you...  It's
definitely linux-related, since it runs on Linux.

Same location as NBLUG and a few familiar NBLUG faces, but not an NBLUG
event.

Yeah, that's right, they convinced me to give a talk.  I'll be talking about
the puppet system for automating common system administration tasks on unix
systems.  I'll be concentrating on the puppet language, but I'll be
including some of the other details about how it all works and why you might
want to use it.
