Hi, all --
I'm doing some work to get koan provisioning virtual machines in my
environment at the moment, and am running into some trouble. Specifically,
I can't figure out how to actually give the virtual machine an IP address.
I do not allow DHCP except to registered clients -- that is, the DH
When I create my system profiles I generate a random mac address - can probably
try something similar?

I just "create" one with the following script.

print ':'.join(map(lambda x: "%02x" % x, mac))

Just create a system definition that has an IP address, ie statically

Have you considered using dhcp classes to only give out IP's to 'unknown
clients' if those clients are pxebooting/in anaconda ?
eg:
class "pxeclients" {
match if substring (option vendor-class-identifier, 0, 9) = "PXEClient";
option domain-name-servers 192.168.0.10;
filename "pxelinux.0";
