I use include statements RCS and 'here' documents to accomplish this
sort of thing so I can have local customisations per-host but also a
log of the changes in revision control.
So I'd have something like a centos4-install-ks.cfg called via PXE and
in that...
# Setup users and their authorized_keys
%include /mnt/ks/kickstart/include/users-and-keys.cfg
# Setup secure SSHD configuration
%include /mnt/ks/kickstart/include/secure-sshd.cfg
# Setup Sudo
%include /mnt/ks/kickstart/include/sudo.cfg
# Setup Nagios Remote Plugin Execution
%include /mnt/ks/kickstart/include/nagios-nrpe.cfg
And in each of those, nagios-nrpe.cfg for example something like...
# Install and setup nagios configuration
yum -y install nagios-nrpe
mkdir -p /etc/nagios/RCS
mkdir -p /etc/xinetd.d/RCS
ci -t-'Nagios Remote Plugin Exection configuration.' -u /etc/nagios/nrpe.cfg
ci -t-'Nagios NRPE xinetd configuration.' -u /etc/xinetd.d/nrpe
co -l /etc/nagios/nrpe.cfg
co -l /etc/xinetd.d/nrpe
cat <<EOF > /etc/nagios/nrpe.cfg
