Hi,
I'd like to put my servers' config files in cvs to make it easier to manage (yes, I know about Cfengine). I've been looking for a tutorial and I could find any, and since I'm not a CVS guru, I tried a few things, without even knowing if I'm doing it right.
Any hints?
Regards,

I tend to use RCS. I do intend to sort out a more integrated, multi-system setup using either CVS or Subversion in conjunction with rdist from a central configuration management server at some stage in the future but for now RCS does what I need.
Have a look at the attached dump from our wiki, might be of use to you.

Hi,
Thanks for that, but I'd rather go with CVS as I have a few servers to manage and I'd like to be able to do a checkout then update from my PC to have access to all the config file versions from my pc.
Any other ideas?
