==================
Other Approaches
==================
Here are some variations on the config theme which you may find
useful.
Leveraging Site-Wide Config
===========================
It is possible to maintain a single "site-wide" config file, which
your "machine-wide" config inherits from (see :ref:`site-wide-config`
and :ref:`config-inheritance`).
If you do this, it usually means that your Linux server is running
Samba and exposing a share which includes the site-wide config
file(s). We will assume that scenario here, but we assume that part
is already setup - it will not be described.
So let's assume then that you have a Linux server named
``poser-server`` and it exposes a ``rattail`` share, with a ``config``
folder and ``site.conf`` within that. So then in your machine-wide
config on the Windows side, you include it by adding this to
``C:\ProgramData\rattail\rattail.conf``::
[rattail.config]
include = \\poser-server\rattail\config\site.conf
If you do this then you can also *remove* (most) anything from your
machine-wide config file, which is also defined in the site-wide
config file.
