    Description

      remote_command.sh uses the $USER environment variable to find which user to SSH to. If 'sudo' is used or 'su' without '-l' in CentOS 7 (probably Ubuntu too) then $USER evaluates to the unprivileged user, not root. This can cause installations to fail.

      I would recommend using 'whoami' instead. Or postConfigure should ask what username to use.
