I'll see what's up with the docs...
Sorry, I should have just included what I was talking about:
"Note that if a cobbler import provides enough information
to use the boot server as a yum mirror for core packages,
cobbler will set up kickstarts to use the cobbler server
as a mirror instead of the outside world. If this feature
is undesirable, it can be turned off by setting
yum_core_mirror_from_server to 0 in /var/lib/cobbler/settings
(and rerunning ``cobbler sync''). You may want to disable this
feature if machines are provisioned on a different
VLAN/network than production."
I'm also starting to understand the wisdom of setting up using MAC
addresses, even under Xen. Are there 'best practices' for this? I
just made up a prefix (BF:CC in my case, so we can remember that my
company set it up) and for the remainder I used the IP address, in
hex, human order. If there's a better way that might sync up later
with virt-factory I'd be happy to change over.
Thanks,
