Even if the server doesn't directly need Internet access the OS
and
even those limited applications need to be updated periodically for
security fixes if nothing else - thus the encouragement (with easy to
follow instructions perhaps) to set up a mirror that can be used to
install whatever software you want to use.
If your server will never be connected to the Internet, then you might not
need security fixes and updates. However, this is not a topic of the
discussion.
Ignoring the battle to make a decision, you end up making the wrong
choice for a significant number of users. Thus all or nothing is
really a better set of options.
I thought that this was about making the server DVD leaner. So, if there
should be a lean Server Dvd, it still should have some applications on it,
right? If not, then why not delete the whole Server DVD ISO, if we can only
provide a Netinst ISO and all are welcome to download and install anything
they need from the Internet or a local repository?
