The HTTP GET request can pass query arguments, so it would look like:

http:///install.conf?mac=xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx&...

That way a static file can be served or it can be generated by a CGI
script.



Unattended installation - install.conf per server

Hi,

how would we define specific install.conf for specific host?
We could you rewrite rules based on client's IP but what
based on other attributes (hwaddr...)?

I was thinking if it would be possible to pass such values
as HTTP headers values but our `ftp' seems to not allow us
to define own HTTP headers.

So... what is the plan?
