There are no restrictions to copying STAF.cfg. Just know that changing
STAF.cfg while STAFProc is running will not change the configuration that
STAF uses until you shutdown and restart STAFProc.
There are different ways that people update your STAF.cfg files. Some
people keep a master copy of the STAF.cfg file(s) they use and copy it to
all their machines. You may want to look at using the STAF LifeCycle
service to help do this. It can be used to submit one or more STAF
service requests when STAFProc starts up or when STAFProc is shutdown.
What is it that you are changing in every STAF.cfg file? Trust
statements? If so, you may be able to take advantage of the wildcard
character (*) in your host names and/or IP addresses in your trust
statements to ease the number of changes (or you could just set the
default trust level to 5 so that you don't have to get individual trust to
your machines). Note too that you can dynamically change trust via the
TRUST service.

[staf-users] Distributing STAF.cfg
Hi,
Well, STAF is starting to proliferate across my network. I have more and
more machines that use it. This is a Good Thing(tm).
But, I'm getting tired of manually changing every STAF.cfg file. How do
people normally deal with this? Do they simply do a massive "file copy"
to populate every machine? Are there any restrictions to copying STAF.cfg?
