I have the below code in my finish script. The finish script runs during
the end of the jumpstart, but when the machine reboots it asks me for
roots password. No matter what I enter Root does have the password that
is entered in the script, so the actually setting of the password is not
then problem but I don't understand why it still asks me for the passwd
after reboot, the end of the script is suppose to stop it from doing
that and it does work on Sol 7, 8, and 9 but not on 2.6.... what am I
missing??
Thank you
Lex
