I actually thought of another case where this would be useful, just never
replied to the thread. We have isolated prod/qa/dev environments here, but
will only have one cobbler server. Our dev/qa environments use a proxy to
talk to the main satellite server, so we would need to specify the proxy
RHN server for those when building them, rather than directly to the
production Satellite server.
We're still in the process of getting our build server together, but as
soon as we do this feature would help immensely.
Hello James,
If you need I can provide a patch or src.rpm for the current stable
with this in as well if you need for your environment. It would be
nice to get the testing done :)
Let me know either way how the testing gets on, hope you have fun with cobbler.
Take care.
