Hi all! I currently use multiple machines at home running FreeBSD. I've been in the habit of updating the ports collection and /usr/src on each machine individually. I know there's a more efficient way to do this. I have an old Pentium I machine. Is it possible to use this machine as a simple file server where I can update the ports collection and /usr/src then "push" it out to my other machines? By that, I mean once the file server is updated, some type of script runs that automatically updates the other machines' ports and /usr/src? Is this even doable? I don't know. Link's to articles/web sites that might explain this would be great. Also, is there a specific term for what I'm trying to achieve? Thanks for your time!
