Create template of current server
Hello,
I've been trying to create a template of a server with all the current applications and configs installed. Which i then could get a file of that i could then later spin off on another server and it should work just fine and with all the configs and apps installed. What would be the best way to do this?

The better way is create install script for all applications you using, then create tar with configuration files (most in /etc/). At the end, gzip all and rsync to backup space.
There are many ways to achieve this, are we talking about a vm or a physical server ?
Is it Linux or Windows ?
