well, I am going to disappoint you guys, but I just made a small python
program that gets called by puppet when config files change which connects
to a specified cobbler server's xmlrpc and updates it based on the config
files.  It took something like 20 minutes, instead of building cobbler
types.  I might combe back to it at a later time.
