Hello again:
Maybe anyone out there on the list would be willing to assist me --
as *paid* install help for Cobbler (on a OpenVZ container)?
It is half-installed, so to say. All Kickstart Templates and
Snippets are there, from an older install. However, I can't get dhcpd
to run and do not know how to import a couple of OS (CentOS mostly)
-- without a CD, from the net. After trying for over two days I am
still lost.
You can contact me directly:
Frank at : support at server-1.com
Best wishes,
Frank
