-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Has anyone on the list ever kickstarted over a WAN? Let's say I have some developers in Los Angeles, but my kickstart server is in San Francisco. When the developers are done trashing a RH 7.3 machine, I want to be able to "reimage" the remote machine so that it has a fresh kickstart install. Some of you may say, why don't you just put a local kickstart server in L.A. That won't work because I have the same situation in at least 10 other locations. I want to put a kickstart server on the Internet so that all the machines can talk to it. My questions are: 1. How do I kick off the anaconda installer on a running machine? 2. Can I just do a kickstart http install? 3. How would I set the default gateway so that the kickstarting machine could actually talk to the kickstart server? I know with Solaris I would just dump a WebStart image on the 2nd internal disk in the box and then boot off of that. I don't think I can do that with kickstart. I DO have access to the console on the remote machine so that is not a problem. (I however, do NOT, want to be shipping install disks to developers all over the place to have them insert and remove for kickstart installation). Does anyone have any experience with this?
