Next problem.
Now that I have the the firewall fixed to allow incomining tftp
requests for the PXE boot.
Things perk along for a while, then it tries to get the kickstart file
from
http://<server-ip>/cblr/kickstarts_sys/<client-MAC>/ks.cfg
Ok, add one more rule to the firewall config.
Oops, there's no http server running on the server.
"cobbler check" (see also: manpage) can be used to detect basic problems
in a server configuration, however it doesn't check
for service start/stop states. This is something that can be added to
the TODO list. Not a bad idea :)
Examining the firewall configuration may also prove interesting.

Figured out the answers to my questions.
The server is a CentOS5 box and I needed to add some rules to
the default firewall settings.
And there is a searchable archive of this list at
