I have a really simple question, but am having a hard time finding ananswer via Google -- How does one disable the SSH keypair generationthat automatically occurs upon first booting-up a new machine ? I justinstalled FC5 and am trying to do this to avoid over-writing my formerkeys (which I restore to the machine in the post-installation section ofa kickstart file). Any tips or pointers to online info would be greatlyappreciated.

The keys are only generated if the files don't already exist. If themachine is generating new keys, then your restore probably failed.Check your post install script for errors.
