The installer then asks whether or not you wish to create a configuration channel based on the
configuration files created while running configure-proxy.sh. The installer will then create a
RHN Satellite Server configuration channel based on the name of the client system upon which
RHN Proxy Server is installed (in the example above the sysID is 1000010000), and collects
the various httpd, SSL, squid, and jabberd server files that will comprise the configuration
channel for the Proxy server.
6. Finally, the installer starts and restarts all RHN Proxy Server related services and exits when
completed.

4.2.1. The Answer File
If you want to automate some of the process of installing RHN Proxy Server on your systems, the
configure-proxy.sh program allows administrators to create answer files that contain pre-filled
responses to prompts in the installation program.
The following is an example answer file that contains pre-filled answers related to version number,
the RHN Satellite Server server that serves as the parent server, SSL, and other configuration
parameters. For more information about creating and using answer files, refer to the configure-
proxy.sh manual page by typing man configure-proxy.sh at a shell prompt.
# example of answer file for configure-proxy.sh
