[UFO Chicago] syncing multiple workstations to one master

[W. Scott Lockwood III]

For extremely small values of terrifying, sure. It's FAR easier, simpler,
scriptable, and manageable than cfengine, puppet, or the like.

Seriously, if I want all the user info across a cluster to be the same, I
create a file pack that does that, and a then type 'sudo warsync 10-users'
and it's just done. Same with many other things, not the least of which is,
doing a 'warsync -a debian' which makes all the systems in a cluster the
same. It's a really, really simple and good tool.
