I mostly use it for installing all the updates, and some non-redhat packages. I don't have any virtual packages. Instead, to standardize the configuration files, I use cfengine and run a script upon reboot after the kickstart. Then cfengine can be used for future changes to configuration files too. It's pretty slick. http://www.iu.hio.no/cfengine/ -- Amy Tanner amy at real-time.com -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
