this is very neat and it seems that i can use the variable 'hostname' as
set in cobbler to do what i want.
could anyone offer me a slight hint on something that would basically do
if $getVar("hostname") = foo do something
if $getVar("hostname") = bar do something_else
and if $getVar("hostname") = baz do this final thing
i know this is basic stuff and i can do it with case but i think i need
to adapt!
thanks
