My experience when giving my users an internal server doing this was (in chronological order) 0) failure to understand (What's Patrick on about now) 1) mild interest after first demo 2) after using it themselves, "how could I live without this beofre" Some things I used in convincing users to give it a try themselves - why have the hassle of downloading different boot media (RHEL 4 AS, RHEL5 Server, F12, rawhide, ... and all these for multiple architectures) - why would you want to download a new boot image every few months? - ability to access kickstarts from the boot.example.com server (i.e. a tester just needs to boot it and choose the release he was asked to test) RU PCFE -- I am Dirty Harry of Borg.
