All,

the issue was in fact SELinux related. While I'm not sure what exactly
needs to be done to resolve the issue in the long term.. the following is a
temporary work-around.

*setenforce permissive*

allows me to perform the reposync, so for the moment I'm satisfied with
this.

perhaps in a little bit I'll perform a complete rebuild of the cobbler
server in the near future and see if I can reproduce the issue from the
ground up.

Thanks all!
