As mentioned, this can be done with Chef, Puppet, and Salt, but be careful about how you go about it. It is important to recognize when it is best to leverage AD for your Windows configs.
It is easy to fall down the rabbit hole of trying to implement things in a CM tool/Powershell combo that could be done in AD far easier.
- drummer32 13y agoGenuine question: Why would you have Windows servers joined in an AD domain? Or are you talking about pushing changes to workstations?
- AjithAntony 13y agoBecause the services you provide depend on a domain for authentication and configuration like Exchange, Citrix, IIS, Sharepoint, SCCM, and every other Microsoft server product. I am dying for the chef/puppet/salt/ansible/cfengine recipe that will let me fully configure this stuff, including the domain memberships.
