Hi all- I'm NFS sharing /usr from one box to a number of other, with the aim of having only to do one apt update to the server machine (when I finally get my 28.8 modem working ... :-) and so as not to waste disk space on the client machines.
I'd just like to know what anyone else in this situation does to keep /etc/ and other important directories up-to-date on the clients, so that /etc/alternatives works, and all the wm files under /etc (like menu hooks, etc) are consistent/present. Or am I going at this the wrong way - is NFS'ing the whole of /usr not a Good Thing? If so, what's the solution that results in a global /usr for the clients? cheers, jc
