That's right, I don't want the DHCP server to answer DHCP requests from
nodes not setup using Cobbler during
the installation part (after assigning hostname/ip/mac). The system then
should have the same IP which was assigned during the Cobbler setup/install.

As soon as I remove 'range dynamic-bootp' from the dhcp.template file, it
stops working,

How should I set this up in the cleanest/simpliest way?
We will also have it multi-homing for appr. 10 networks (vlans)
