Suppose I did this on a host: [user@host user]$ perl print crypt('password', 'ec') . "\n"; ecB9Q0xjW6h1g [user@host user]$ Then copy/paste this into the %post on the install: /usr/sbin/adduser -c "Local Admin" -d "/home/admin" -m -G wheel \ -p ecB9Q0xjW6h1g admin' Note the usage and the line wrapping for reading's sake. After it's run, the 'admin' login will have the 'password' as the password. peter > From: "Edgar Chillón 'Chillux'" <e_chillon@xxxxxxxxxxxx> > Reply-To: Discussion list about Kickstart <kickstart-list@xxxxxxxxxx> > Date: Fri, 26 Nov 2004 10:12:22 -0600 (CST) > To: Discussion list about Kickstart <kickstart-list@xxxxxxxxxx> > Subject: RE: Users + kikstart > > But how do I determine the password automatically , i > supusse if I put the user add in the %post it will ask > me for a password wouldn`t it ? > > > --- "Robinson, Andrew W." <Andrew.W.Robinson@xxxxxxx> > escribió: >> You could run useradd in the %post section.
