kickstart disk
Hi all
I am attempting to add a user via the %post task on my kickstart disk
my
chkconfig -- telnet on
is ok
The user add command is
/usr/sbin/useradd -m -u 101 -g 101 -c "de user" -d /home/de -s /bin/tcsh de
/usr/sbin/usermod -p '$1$A1loilhN$0wkwN8eZeUjmRUB7Bjw021' de
This fails
Any ideas ?
I can issue the usermod -p command with success from the command line
Thanks in advance
Steve

Re: kickstart disk
Well, both of those commands pass with flying colors outside of a KS environment..
Things to check:
When the KS is running, watch the 4th VTY (umm.. I think it's the 4th *crigne* been a while). It should have the output of the KS commands. See which of those two lines failes.
As the default build-commands (i.e. anaconda KS file) has basiclaly identical commands (it's just adding a user afterall)...
One dumb question however. Are the 'tcsh' packages being installed, and is that package modifying the /etc/shells file to say that it's a valid shell?

Re: kickstart disk
Hi Stuart
Thanks for the reply
Please excuse me. This is my first week with linux
What do you mean by '4th VTY' I was wondering where i could see the commands from the %post
Also
Is it possible to test a kickstart disk as opposed to attempting an install with the disk. Having the commands fail, make the changes, reattempt the install etc etc
Thanks again
Steve

Re: kickstart disk
What I mean by the "4th VTY", is the 4th virtual terminal. If you prses CTRL-ALT-F4 during the install, you'll change to a text-screen with various details. I beleive the 4th one has the %post output.
If not, it's either the 2nd, 3rd. (ALT-F7 will return to the GUI installation, ALT-F1 to the TEXT installation).
No, I do not know of a way to 'test' a KS configuration without running it.. sorry.
