RE: automated installation of rpm/app on a number of client machines

hmm..

there appears to be some kind of mis-understanding regarding my question..

if i have 50 systems.. i'm trying to figure out how to automate the process
of installing the rpms across the 50 systems, so i don't have to do it
manually. i was also saying that the install process might also involve
creating of users/modifying config files...

if you're implying that i could 'modify' the rpm file, so that the invoking
of the rpm would perform these functions, then ok.. maybe.

i'm trying to find out if there's an automated/scripting method for this
kind of purpose. has anyone actually done this kind of automated action, and
if you have, cna you tell me how you did it...

thanks

More up to date information is included in the draft RPM Guide:

    http://fedora.redhat.com/docs/drafts/rpm-guide-en/

You'll also find useful information about creating packages in the
Fedora Packaging Guidelines:

    http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/Guidelines

Specific info about creating users using fedora-usermgmt:

    http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/PackageUserCreation

To be clear on your original questions Bruce, all the things you asked
about should be done in the rpm packaging.  Then all that's required
to make it work on different systems is to install it via rpm or yum.
