What is YOUR solution for a unversal process for managing / editing

what problem??)
Cfengine does that, but it's crude. Puppet is going to go one step
further and hide some of the details.
My reading of puppet suggested it still deals in config file replacement.
If thats so its usefulness is largely offset by the overhead of managing
and documenting the puppet backend. When all is said and done any system
that merely pushes files to managed devices, oblivious of the changes
within those files is kludgey at best.
There is simply no silver bullet.
Of course not, but there solid approaches to shooting this problem dead.
It is just not east to get there from here.

Shane
