Yep, it's purely a configuration of hte Cobbler server thing. If the client still tries to netboot, it should just timeout/failover (but requires client configuration on the ordering, etc.). > This scheme breaks down if one chooses to hand out ip addrs (dhcp) and > boot info (tftp) anonymously ie to *any* requesting mac.

As I mentioned, I think to test it, it should be straightforward to use a trigger, and then someone could open an issue/work on a code-fix (probably needs a configuration entry, etc.). -Nish _______________________________________________ cobbler mailing list cobbler@lists.fedorahosted.org https://lists.fedorahosted.org/mailman/listinfo/cobbler
