Abstract

The system configuration is the most important thing to any web developer, network manager, system admin, or even for any average user. We all love using our applications but the last thing one would want do is spend 6 hours setting the system up manually installing the applications desired on the system. Proper configuration of a system is must in case of big enterprise and even in small businesses because every hour of an employee wasted on setting up his system is more and more time lost which could have been invested in other important work. This is why automating the system setup is important in corporate world. In Windows, you can do this using Powershell and in Linux, you can do this using any of the vast number of shells available to interact with the kernel. I prefer Bash over other shells because it is a global standard for if not all but almost any linux operating system.
