Hello,

  I am just playing/trying this tools and a like them, but i have problem 
with. I want to specify a range of hosts and my hostname also contains a 
dash. So i can not specifiy:
  --hosts gb-r1n1-gb-r1n20


maybe we can add add basename option for both commandline and xml file. 
Just as reference in my project pxeconfig i solved it as example
  * https://subtrac.rc.sara.nl/oss/pxeconfig/wiki/PxeUsage#hostrange

{{{
We want to make links for a range of hosts, eg node1 till node100, This can 
be acomplished with these commands:

     * pxeconfig --basename node --host-range 1-100 --filename 
default.node_install
     * pxeconfig --basename node --start 1 --end 100

Some sites have name their hosts, eg: node001 till node099. This can also 
be acomplished in several ways:

     * pxeconfig --basename node --equal-width --host-range 1-099
     * pxeconfig --basename node --host-range 001-099
     * pxeconfig --basename node --start 001 --end 099

rack(x) and node(y) specification ΒΆ

We want make links for hosts with a naming schema(s) like this:

  gb-r<number>n<number>
  node-(number)-(number)

These examples will create links for node1, node2 and node3 in rack1, rack2 
and rack3:
  * pxeconfig --basename gb- -rack r1-r3 --node n1-n3 --filename 
default.memtest
  * pxeconfig --basename node --rack 1-3 --node 1-3 --filename default.memtest

When leading zeros are used, then rack and/or node names will be padded 
with zeros, eg:

  * pxeconfig --basename gb- -rack r01-r02 --node n01-n02 --filename 
default.memtest

will create links for hosts:
         * gb-r01n01
         * gb-r01n02
         * gb-r02n01
         * gb-r02n02
}}}
