The cobbler network snippet has the following in it: #if $hostname != "" #set $network_str = $network_str + " --hostname=" + $hostname #end if If you can look at an installed system and share your /root/anaconda.ks we can see what it was installed with. This can also be done with "cobbler system getks --name=foo" or "cobbler profile getks --name=foo", depending on whether you installed it on a per profile or per system basis. Also, please don't top-reply if you can help it, makes the mailing list threads much easier to read. > > -----Original Message----- > From: [email protected] > [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Michael > DeHaan > Sent: Tuesday, January 27, 2009 2:12 PM > To: cobbler mailing list > Subject: Re: Network setup snippet not great with VNC > > Jared Hodge wrote: > >> So the network setup snippet seems very useful, and I want to keep >> using it since I like sticking with the standard way of doing things. >> I use a listening VNC server with my setups so I can monitor the >> progress from my computer.
