This is usually problematic, but has gotten especially difficult with F18.
My Cobbler instance that *can* see the internet imported from mirrors.fedora.org just fine, so I mirrored that repo using lftp and brought it over to my other system. So far so good. I made those same directories available via http as server/repo/Fedora/$basearch/os/ When I try to import these, though, I get the following behaviors: # cobbler import --name=F18 --path=http://server/repo/Fedora/18/i386/os --available-as=http://server/repo/Fedora/18/i386/os --arch=i386 Bombs almost immediately; the log file just says "unsupported protocol". # cobbler import --name=F18 --path=/path/to/Fedora/18/i386/os --available-as=http://server/repo/Fedora/18/i386/os --arch=i386 This runs for quite a while, but it rsyncs, which creates two copies of the data -- I thought the --available-as flag was supposed to avoid this; I really don't need duplicate data on my server. Eventually, though, this too errors out and the log only says: an exception occurred while running the import manager error wsa: [Errno 9] Bad file descriptor No import managers found a valid signature at the location specified. This is on Cobbler 2.2.3 from the RedHat repos. Any ideas?
