I wonder if anyone could recommend a decent centralized configuration
management tool.

In my environment I have multiple RedHat servers with identical
configuration and let's say that I need to change one a value in the same
configuration file on all of them.
Currently I am running scripts which are using SSH to go through all these
servers and make this change, but I am looking for more organized approach,
which would allow me to create some customized rules and policies and manage
configurations from one place.

I saw one tool which could do that - *Cfengine
**http://www.cfengine.org/*<http://www.cfengine.org/>
and heard mixed opinions about it, so I am curious if anyone is using *Cfengine
*or can recommend any other tools.

- Eugene.
