The main issue is that Cobbler works best when you mirror a version-architecture tree (as in 5.2/i386 5.2/x86_64 4.7/etc.) Trying to mirror ALL of XYZ Linux in one set does not work well. I found that out the hard way.. Personally I just set it up to mirror a tree for CentOS and had a cron job that updated the updates. -- Stephen J Smoogen. -- BSD/GNU/Linux How far that little candle throws his beams!
