So we have 4 data centers. Each data center has a different set of name servers and search paths. We deal with that by setting the default_name_servers and default_search_path (or whatever it is) in /etc/cobbler/settings at each site to the settings for that site and then making sure that all profiles are empty in those settings, thus everything gets the site specific details. If you want each profile on the slave to have different options but still inherit the profiles from the master, I've nothing but to say your cron job is definitely one method. Alternatively I guess you could re-write the networking snippet to support drawing that data from an alternate source instead of the name_server variables. Then its an active process rather than a cron job updating things. Although is kinda meh to have to do it that way. _______________________________________________ cobbler mailing list [email protected] https://fedorahosted.org/mailman/listinfo/cobbler
