ot quite unattended and automatic but it does pretty much what
kickstart does: saves you from selecting all the packages you want
over and over again for each machine.
once you have used debian you will never touch a redhat system again.

i think dlocate really takes care of the problem nicely, for things
like status and file lists dlocate is quite fast. its unfortunate
that it was removed from potato for a *ONE LINE BUG* with a fix in the
bts... why oh why could there not have been an NMU??
hmod a+x $HOME. that will
allow finger to see the .plan but not anyone to ls the home
directory. of course if they have an insane umask like 022, 002 or
such then all there files will be readable to all, the obvious
solution of couse is not to use such a horrible umask and use 027 or
007 instead.
