Hi,

Do i need to comment out the below lines in install.pl file not to ask
about Domain and Workgroup ?

$u->{'Identification'}->{'JoinDomain'} =
    sub {
        # Mutual recursion.  IniFile object takes care of it.
        my $join_workgroup = $u->{'Identification'}->{'JoinWorkgroup'};
        # If we are joining a workgroup, then we are not joining a
        # domain.
        defined $join_workgroup
            and return undef;
        return simple_q
            ('Join workstation to what domain (default = none)? ');
    };

$u->{'Identification'}->{'JoinWorkgroup'} =
    sub {
        # Mutual recursion.  IniFile object takes care of it.
        my $join_domain = $u->{'Identification'}->{'JoinDomain'};
        # If we are joining a domain, then we are not joining a
        # workgroup.
        defined $join_domain
            and return undef;
        return simple_q
            ('Join workstation to what workgroup (default = none)? ');
    };

Thanks and Regards,

Kaushal
