I know there are ways to do this already but since we have settings for configuring the resolv.conf, it would be nice if one could also set the options flag (--name-server-options="timeout:1 attempts:1") as a configuration option as well. If this already exists somewhere, great. If a reason exists to _not_ do this, could someone explain why?
Been using cobbler since early 0.4x releases and showed it to someone not experienced with kickstarting systems who asked me how to set such options. So I thought it might be a useful one to add.
Thanks for a great project

Does not presently exist -- sounds reasonable.
I would draw the line at configuring arbitrary apps but we already are trying to cover provisioning networking pretty well.
What do others think?

I totally agree that app specific stuff does not belong in cobbler but since this is just an extension of an existing functionality, it feels more like _finishing_ what's already in place. Hopefully, others will feel the same way.
Thanks.
