The issue is not likely RAM, as there is no real requirement there. As a build server, cobbler needs a lot of disk mainly. I would guess your issue is either a firewall setting or not setting up DHCP correctly. Make sure you run "cobbler sync" after adding a new system with a MAC address (and ensure manage_dhcp is set to 1 in /etc/cobbler/settings). If you change any settings, be sure to restart cobblerd. _______________________________________________ cobbler mailing list cobbler@lists.fedorahosted.org https://fedorahosted.org/mailman/listinfo/cobbler
