Scalable remote config

[Lance Albertson]

Ok, here's the senario:

Have an application that has one configuration file. All the remote
boxes have a 'default' set of values in the config file I want to keep
in one file. But the other part of the file is host dependant. I tried
using editfiles with InsertFile to append two files and create a new
config file. I then realized that editfiles does not support copying to
remote boxes. 

One way around this is to use editfiles on the local master server,
creating appending the files there, and then using copy to distribute
the files to the remote boxes. To me and my peers, this is an ugly way
around our problem.

Is there a better solution to this problem?

Thanks,
