The error seems to be due to an incompatibility between the koan version and whatever spacewalk 1.8 is using. In 2.2.3, the "bonding" field was change to "interface_type", in order to support bridges. You'll need to downgrade koan to a version that matches the version of cobbler spacewalk is using. _______________________________________________ cobbler mailing list cobbler@lists.fedorahosted.org https://lists.fedorahosted.org/mailman/listinfo/cobbler
