Hi:
Can anyone give me advice on how I should go about deploying and
maintaining FreeBSD desktops, in a company setting? I know how to do
it for my own FreeBSD desktop but how would I manage 30 to 50
simultaneous installs? Also what would be an effective way to track
ports so that I don't inadvertently portupgrade to an unstable
version of software? Would I set aside one computer for tracking
ports? That is, suppose I have Gnome 2.6.2 in use but I want to
evaluate 2.8.0. How should I test it? Superficially, it would seem a
simple thing but how can I be sure that my use of 2.8.0 replicates
what be normal usage, throughout the company?
Any pointers or advice would be appreciated.
Kind regards,
Jonathan
