Kevin, Kickstart just calls the authconfig command, so any switch from the authconfig command will work in kickstart. I've also found that 'authconfig --help' shows different options than 'man authconfig'. 'authconfig --help' shows that there is a disable option for shadow, which is not listed in the man page: $ authconfig --help | grep shadow --enableshadow, --useshadow enable shadowed passwords by default --disableshadow disable shadowed passwords by default -- Prentice Collins, Kevin [BEELINE] wrote: > I have just confirmed that with no --enableshadow or --useshadow in my > kickstart file, I am still ending up with a shadow-enabled system.
