Related 'in a way' to this (maybe not)
The pushupdate script, [line 474 & 487] ONLY looks for a .master script:
        my $installscript = "/var/lib/systemimager/scripts/" .
$fields[1] . ".master";
else it die's.

Obviously if you use pushupdate with symlinked auto-install scripts
ending in *.sh you'll have to modify these line(s).
Also because of the bug in pushupdate I wrote a (horrid) 'patched'
version until something better comes along.
Anyone that's desperate can have a copy <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
(allthough I couldn't get host name to ip resolving to work so I had to
end up reading [hostnames][ips] in from a file, quick-fix for now). And
I haven't had a coffee yet...

Cheers;

Subject: Re: [Sisuite-users] How do you define a specific autoinstall
script in local.cfg

This is based on the assumption that most auto-installed clients will be
the same -- it allows you to make modifications in the master
autoinstall script and have it take affect for all the clients with soft
links pointing to it.  

If you need a customized script for an individual client, you can break
the link, and make that client's hostname.sh script different.

Cheers, -Brian
