From my experience, you make the cobbler repo first, then you turn on the mirroring and run reposync, then YOU add the reference to /etc/yum.repos.d/
My cobbler server mirrors several repos that it does not directly use.
This, IMHO, is a Good Thing.

This leads me to a question that I've been working on.
I just need to know if I've been working under an incorrect assumption.
I was under the impression that *somehow*, if I add a repo (and mirror it) under cobbler (e.g. EPEL) that cobbler would/could create a repo entry, in my case, in /etc/yum.repos.d/ for EPEL that points to my mirror and not to the upstream master.
Did I mis understand something?
Right now I'm assuming that I've not gotten that part of the configuration done correctly and will eventually "get it right" along with all the other things I'm doing.
Thanks for everyone's time. _______________________________________________ cobbler mailing list cobbler@lists.fedorahosted.org https://lists.fedorahosted.org/mailman/listinfo/cobbler
