hey guys,

thanks once again for getting back to me


>To disable that, you need to change the virt_auto_boot setting in
>/etc/cobbler/settings to 0, and restart cobblerd.

[root@VIRTCENT14 ~]# grep virt_auto_boot /etc/cobbler/settings
virt_auto_boot: 0


Ok , did all that...


back on the client I tried the following and got the same result (with
iptables turned off on the cobbler server)


[root@LCENT01:~] #koan --virt --server=cobbler --profile=rhel62-i386
--virt-name=vm01
- looking for Cobbler at http://cobbler:80/cobbler_api
- reading URL: http://192.168.1.36/cblr/svc/op/ks/profile/rhel62-i386

libvirtd (pid  2801) is running...

usage: virt-install --name NAME --ram RAM STORAGE INSTALL [options]

virt-install: error: no such option: --autostart
command failed (2)

Got the same result oddly. The way I installed koan on this centos 5.8
system was to go yum install koan --enablerepo=epel-testing


Is there any easy way to get a new version than koan-2.2.3-2.el5 onto this
system? Maybe at least part of  the problem is that the client is centos
5.8 and the server is centos 6.2?


Thanks
Tim
