So I guess a kickstart file is needed then to populate all of those  
settings.

Now my question with this is:

Where would the vnc kickstart directive need to be in the kickstart  
file? Just at the end after all of the outlined directives (language,  
keyboard,
install method, and TCP/IP settings)?
