Re: Identical installations on several machines



A# dpkg --get-selections > selections
A# scp selections B:
A# ssh B
B# dpkg --set-selections < selections
B# dselect install remove

Keep in mind though, this will not reproduce the CONFIGURATIONS, just the
PACKAGES. You could try

B# rsync -e ssh -a A:/etc /

to get /etc synch'd, but some things (e.g. /etc/hostname) you don't want
synch'd, and then there are some things in /var you want synch'd (and
others you don't). This isn't quite such an easy problem. It is solvable
(I know -- I do it with 6 machines), but it requires some thoughtful
script construction.
