What we do is use sysinstall and have a custome install.cfg for each server that sets the IP, hostname, and disk configuration. When sysinstall is done it adds a package that sets local static configuration options such as configuring ssh, adding in a common rc.local, setting up qmail, etc. It then uses cvsup to pull over /usr/local from a master server. -- mark To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-isp" in the body of the message
