I just did the following and $nameserver evaluated fine in
/var/www/cobbler/kickstarts_sys/X/ks.cfg
cobbler system edit --name=X --ksmeta="nameserver=foo.example.org"
cat /var/www/cobbler/kickstarts_sys/X.ks.cfg | grep foo.example.org
Obviously it won't be evaluated in the profile kickstart because that
data was tacked on to the system, not the profile...
for the record the issue here was that my network snippet looked like
network --bootproto=static --device=eth0 --onboot=on --ip=$ip_address
--netmask=$netmask --gateway=$gateway --nameserver=$nameserver
--hostname=$hostname
and it should have been
network --bootproto=static --device=eth0 --onboot=on --ip=$ip_address
--netmask=$subnet --gateway=$gateway --nameserver=$nameserver
--hostname=$hostname
thanks
