OK, then can I get a better understanding of what happens when I do the "cobbler reposync" command ? I want to see if I can exclude the offending packages at the repo mirror by hand. Doing it once at that level is preferred to doing it at each client. Having created a custom local repo, I know it could be as simple as editing the RPM collection and running "createrepo", but I need to do it so that cobbler will pick up my modifications. _______________________________________________ cobbler mailing list [email protected] https://fedorahosted.org/mailman/listinfo/cobbler
