I'm quite often confused by these two variables and http://faiwiki.debian.net/index.php/Variables also doesnt shed too much light on it. (AIUI the main difference is, that FAI_CONFIGDIR is always a path, while FAI_CONFIG_SRC has to be an URL. (And FAI_CONFIGDIR is used to setup the server and FAI_CONFIG_SRC is used on the clients.)) Softupdate only needs FAI_CONFIG_SRC, so what the simple examples IMO should do, is to set it, so that softupdates of clients (installed with the simples examples) instantly work. (That's what I do.) Another option would be to inherit FAI_CONFIG_SRC from FAI_CONFIGDIR, if FAI_CONFIG_SRC is not set. regards, Holger
