How do I set up a cobbler repository of the epel?  I've tried this guide.

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/101278/Cobbler/2_Bootstrapping_Puppet.html

The commands I ran are these.

cobbler repo add --name=centos6-epel --mirror=rsync://rsync.mirrorservice.org/sites/download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/epel/6/x86_64 --mirror-locally=1
cobbler reposync

But it appears that mirrorservice.org is having some issues.  The error says that sites won't be returning, and I can't connect to the http service to see what url I should use instead.

Thanks.

As per previous posters comments, you just provide puppet via a
cobbler repository (either EPEL or a more detailed one with just the
packages you need that you create) during the install.  Then leave
$yum_config_stanza out of your %post section.  You will still want
$yum_repo_stanza up further in the kickstart.

I'll leave the how it will work post-network question to howards line
of the thread.
