External users needing kickstart installs are hitting (say) kickstart.private.example.com, which redirects off to a login page? Which network resources are being accessed (kickstart file, 2nd-stage loader, install dir, %post stuff), and how are the users being asked to boot the install? To generalize, if everything works *except* the awkward login/redirect, you might be able to do something with %pre, dialog(1) and wget/curl to prompt and login at the beginning of kickstarting.
