  • configure nsswitch.conf@hosts line for dns name lookup order
  • install and configure nfs-common (and rpcbind) to only listen to localhost
    • use pillar: "nfs:listen_ip" to overwrite the default list
  • add netplan or systemd.netdev/network files if present in pillar
• .hostname
  • Configures hostname
• .accounts
  • Configure users and groups
• .storage
  • configure filesystems, mounts and directories
