Good morning, all!
We're looking to simplify our lives by using a configuration management package that can also handle patching Windows and Linux in the physical and virtual environments. This will need to be open, free editions and manage between 150 - 200 devices to start. These would be primarily Linux and Windows servers, with possible config management of my Cisco and HP network devices.
Without starting flamewars, I'd be grateful for recommendations, warnings, sob stories, glittering triumphs.....whatever can give me a good idea of which way to move on this.
Thanks to all for looking!
Gregg
