Hi

I've been looking over the documentation for <ask> at 
http://newsportal.novell.com/article.php?id=1565&group=novell.support.sles.install-boot#1565
 - but it leave's me with several questions (sorry for my ignorance, I'm new to 
all this autoyast stuff ;) )
 
  - if I use the "<file>/tmp/answer_hostname</file>", what is the format of the 
answer file?? just an empty text file with the answer or?

  - what about the value to be exchanged? should it be empty, or will any 
predefined value be exchanged with the one asked for?

  - Will it be possible to answer serveral "paths" with the same question?? eg. 
below

      <ask>
     <path>arkmanager,dbpassword</path>
     <path>ca_mgm,password</path>
     <question>Type Password</question>
     <stage>initial</stage>
     <default>Type in your password here</default>
     </ask>

      or is there, a more clever solution to such a question?

  - How about the password... is it possible to get this read from an clear 
text string? (I'm installing OES2, and there are several passwords and some are 
written in clear text, and some ain't)
