Thanks, I'll look into it.
 From the short description I think it doesn't suit my needs, but I'll 
look better.

Overhead, mainly.
Having a lot of Salt process running consumes memory (which might be 
scarce in older systems).
More packages to install/maintain/upgrade.
Etc...

Might be better, although I guess it would need enabling SSH in every 
jail (which is something I don't normally do).
I'll look into it anyway.



  bye & Thanks a lot
