6.4.10.4.6.1. Kickstart Details
Post Details —
Allows editing of the %post script and inclusion of other options to be set after initial kickstart.
You may alter individual commands within the script, identify the package profile to be used during
synchronization, and include the activation key to be used for registration. If you plan to include
multiple activation keys, first refer to Section 6.4.7.2 Using Multiple Activation Keys at Once —
for an explanation of how conflicts are resolved.
In addition, you may predetermine whether configuration management and remote commands may
be carried out on the system using the checkboxes at the bottom of the page. Make your changes and
click the Update Post button.
6.4.10.4.6.2. Kickstart Details
Post GPG and SSL keys —
Displays all of the GPG and SSL keys created by your organization. To include GPG and SSL keys
you have created in the %post section, select the keys and click the Update Keys button. Refer to
Section 6.4.10.8 Kickstart
GPG and SSL Keys — for instructions on creating keys.
Caution
When kickstarting systems receiving updates through either an RHN Proxy Server or RHN Satellite
Server:, you must import that server’s SSL certificate at the Kickstart/GPG and SSL Keys page and
associate it with all relevant kickstart profiles. This association should be made on the GPG and SSL
keys subtab of the Kickstart Details page. Not doing this will result in SSL_CERTIFICATE errors,
and the kickstart will never report as complete in the RHN website.
6.4.10.4.6.3. Kickstart Details
Post --nochroot —
Allows for the inclusion of commands to be executed before commands in the regular %post section
and outside of the chroot. Refer to the Red Hat Enterprise Linux System Administration Guide for
potential uses.
6.4.10.4.6.4. Kickstart Details Post --interpreter —
Like the same subtab under Pre, this enables you to specify an interpreter and specific commands to
be interpreted before the rest of the %post section. Since the post script runs after the install, the full
range of system commands is available, such as /usr/bin/perl. Identify the interpreter in the top
field then include the commands to be intepreted under it, and click Update Post.
6.4.10.4.7. Kickstart Details
IP Addresses —
Identifies the IP address ranges to be presented with this kickstart profile upon request. Conflicts
between IP address ranges will not be allowed unless one range is a subset of another, in which case
the kickstart associated with the smallest of the enclosing ranges will be presented. Enter the range and
click the Update IP ranges button. New fields will appear allowing you to enter additional ranges.
