Thank you for the quick reply.

Yes I am running everything as root.

ps -ef |grep cobblerd yields:
/usr/bin/python2 /usr/bin/cobblerd --daemonize

Cat /var/lib/cobbler/web.ss yields a very long hex number that ends with 
"root@coanfs pxelinux.cfg"

All files I've checked are root:root except web.ss which is apache:root.

As a sanity checked I restarted httpd, and cobblerd then did a cobbler sync. 
This seems to have solved the problem. I'm guessing I missed the sync step.

Thanks again and is this list top post or bottom post?

- Cobbler daemon is the responsible for replying to XML-RPC requests.
I assume you have started it as described in the quickstart guide?

Make sure it is running:

ps aux | grep cobblerd

- If it is running, I'd check if shared secret was created correctly at 
/var/lib/cobbler/web.ss.

- I assume you are running the Cobbler CLI as root user
