[cobbler] Mirroring SLES 12 repositories

[Joshua J. Kugler]

So, with the release of SLES 12, Novell/SUSE has created a new way to access 
their update repositories.

Instead of the easy-to-use

https://user:p...@nu.novell.com/repo/$RCE/SLE11-SDK-SP3-Updates/sle-11-x86_64

You now have to access updates.suse.com, and pass in a token obtained by 
hitting their API (in other words, a token that expires).

This, of course, makes it impossible to mirror the repos in Bobbler (at least 
to my knowledge).  Has anyone created a work-around yet to enable mirroring of 
SLES 12 repos in cobbler?

You should be able to have the MS Server relay the DHCP request to the
cobbler server (pretty sure its a spec of DHCP) but I do not know how.

Whatever DHCP server you use would have to support the next-server field.. if 
it is set, that is
the TFTP server that it will go to to fetch the first tarball, in this case it 
would be the cobbler server.
I am not aware of any feature of cobbler that will automatically sync an 
external DHCP server
so you might have to coordinate manually.

When we were using cobbler we were doing all static IP's but we just configured 
the
cobbler server to give back the same IP's via DHCP as the machine would have 
normally,
and our network guys were OK with that.
