unattended

If you wish to store and organize installation settings for a large number of computers you are best off with a database of some sort. This is where Unattended really shines in large organizations.

Unattended offers two options: MySQL Database or a CSV Flat File

Setting up a CSV flat file system
Make a backup of the original config.pl and replace it with the cvs flat file-enabled sample:

mv site/config.pl site/orig-config.pl
cp site/sample-config.pl site/config.pl

Edit site/unattend.csv based upon the format described at the beginning of lib/conf-csv.pl and the Lookups and Properties described in the beginning of (the new) site/config.pl and populate it with your data.
Done!
