I've seen user rpms.
How do you do it.
I use SaltStack in a masterless minion configuration. I build a base image with a BASH script that has enough of the VM that SaltStack can take over and do the rest. Here is the SaltStack documentation to manage users. <https://docs.saltstack.com/en/latest/ref/states/all/salt.states.user.html> I'm also working on eliminating the need to create a custom ISO image from which I generate the VM by using Packer <https://www.packer.io/> with the SaltStack provider. That will give make it easier for me to have one configuration file and a common set of Salt states from which I can target various virtualization environments - VirtualBox, VMWare, Hyper-V, Amazon EC2, Azure, OpenStack, etc. -- Regards, Clifford Ilkay + 1 647-778-8696
