I think the only reasonable solution here is to package your own shadow-utils and point yum to your custom packages repo in the kickstart. -- Suvayu Open source is the future.

Including your own shadow-utils with a modified login.defs is probably the best solution. Ideally, authconfig would gain an option to do this so that line of the kickstart could modify it. (Although anaconda might run that too late too, I don't know.) -T.C. -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines

But I always do the partitioning manually to make sure I do not format any disks I should not. To injet a logon.defs I would first have to format the disks,and set up the raid (my computers are all very diffrent, so this means a custom kickstart file for every machine) programatically in the %pre, then mount the disk and finally inject the logon.defs while also making sure anaconda does not reformat the disk (the graphical anaconda forbids installing to existing partition) -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
