Re: Automating DebConf answers



You must answer the questions once in a machine.
In theory with debconf-getselections you can extract that answers ant
seed them to every host with debconf-setselections. They'll be marked
as seen and thus they will not be asked again.

I haven't tried it yet.

Tell me if that works
