This is so sensitive to individual environment requirements it has never been standardized well that I've seen. It *always* gets done by the local admin, to fit their requirments. If you really want to store system configs to be able to do diffs, I personally pull backups to a secured central server with tools like "rsnapshot" to get daily backups of all of "/etc/" and "/root/" and a few critical logs It's very stable, very robust, and very flexible. > Use case: I generated an F26 OVA image using imagefactory 30 days ago, > then I generated a new F26 image today.
