I want all my computing environments "furnished" similarly and as close
to my personal taste as possible - be it big and small machines,
self-administered and user accounts of others.
...and not only for myself - similar is needed for the environments I
help maintain for my friends Siri, Erik and Peter.
The environments are seldom fully equal, so simply copying things around
is rarely useful.
Here's a checklist of things that I need to customize and syncronize for
me and my friends to feel at $HOME...:
- System-wide
- Tools available on the system
- Graphical login and Desktop environments
- Adjust fonts, colors etc. of terminal emulator, file manager etc.
- Register SSH in monkeysphere, MAC in DHCP and hostname in DNS
- Account
- Syncronize browser bookmarks
- Install/configure browser search plugins, config tweaks etc.
- Setup email and messaging accounts, and syncronize archives
- Syncronize development scripts, git repositories etc.
- Register account in monkeysphere
Above is work-in-progress. I hope to later extend with more details -
probably by linking to separate pages about each subtopic.
