If anyone still wants to send in some data, that would be much appreciated. I will look at consolidating results about what people are using next week and send it out. Please reply to me and not on-list. Thanks! The question I also forgot to ask was (J) Are you using cobbler's DHCP and/or DNS management features? So answers to that are also welcome. It's going to stay-in but I would like to know how widespread usage is. Thanks! --Michael _______________________________________________ cobbler mailing list [email protected] https://fedorahosted.org/mailman/listinfo/cobbler
