I can do better :) The feature is checked into git now.
Basically new cobbler import commands will "just work". For older ones,
go into your /var/lib/cobbler/distros and replace the server
addresses with "@@server@@"
<developer-mode>
How this works, for templating enthusiasts, is that for every string
variable accessible in what we normally feed to Cheetah, we replace
@@variable@@ with
it's value /after/ we complete our first pass of Cheetah rendering.
This second pass does not use Cheetah to avoid the problem
of having to escape anything differently -- it just uses a basic
string.replace() loop. The additional level of templating is very basic
and I would encourage people to pretend it doesn't exist rather than
making anything depend on it.

You could write a script that read the value of

and then updated the contents of /var/lib/cobbler/distros appropriately.
It is a perfectly reasonable request to be able to have a value like
"$server" inside the "tree" parameter and have
it parse out though.
I'll see about adding that for 0.6.1 -- we could only use this
behavior for distros
we imported with "cobbler import" and didn't use the "--available-as"
parameter, but that would
cover a very large amount of distros.
If implemented as mentioned above, all you would have to do is change
/var/lib/cobbler/settings and re-sync.
In case it wasn't obvious, I'm shooting for 0.6.1 to release Friday, so
it won't be that long if you want to wait.
Short term, just hack /var/lib/cobbler/distros, re-run cobbler sync, and
things will work.
