if you are able to marry pure-ftpd, samba and 250 cms-installations predictable
on a machine running also *self developed* managment-software for a complete
infrastructure on 20 Fedora servers with SElinux go ahead :-)

been there done that and it makes thiings so secure that they are completly
unuseable because you are searching all day long for problems acess denied
here and there

however, if nobody is interested in my proposal i am fine since i do not
use the fedora packages for critial services and the own infrastructure
is using systemd-units how we want, need and can predictable support them
