Anaconda Kickstart Documentation
================================
:Authors:
Brian C. Lane <bcl@redhat.com>
Anaconda uses `kickstart <https://github.com/rhinstaller/pykickstart>`_ to automate
installation and as a data store for the user interface. It also extends the kickstart
commands `documented here <https://github.com/rhinstaller/pykickstart/blob/master/docs/kickstart-docs.rst>`_
by adding a new kickstart section named %anaconda where commands to control the behavior
of Anaconda will be defined.
pwpolicy
--------
``program: pwpolicy <name> [--minlen=LENGTH] [--minquality=QUALITY] [--strict|notstrict] [--emptyok|notempty] [--changesok|nochanges]``
Set the policy to use for the named password entry.
``name``
Name of the password entry, currently supported values are: root, user and luks
``--minlen`` (8)
Minimum password length. This is passed on to libpwquality.
``--minquality`` (50)
Minimum libpwquality to consider good. When using --strict it will not allow
passwords with a quality lower than this.
``--strict`` (DEFAULT)
Strict password enforcement. Passwords not meeting the --minquality level will
not be allowed.
``--notstrict``
Passwords not meeting the --minquality level will be allowed after Done is clicked
twice.
``--emptyok`` (DEFAULT)
Allow empty password.
``--notempty``
Don't allow an empty password
``--changesok``
Allow UI to be used to change the password/user when it has already been set in
the kickstart.
``--nochanges`` (DEFAULT)
Do not allow UI to be used to change the password/user if it has been set in
the kickstart.
The defaults for these are set in the /usr/share/anaconda/interactive-defaults.ks file
provided by Anaconda. If a product, such as Fedora Workstation, wishes to override them
then a product.img needs to be created with a new version of the file included.
When using a kickstart the defaults can be overridded by placing a %anaconda section into
the kickstart, like this::
%anaconda
pwpolicy root --minlen=10 --minquality=60 --strict --notempty --nochanges
%end
.. note:: The commit message for pwpolicy included some incorrect examples.
