My bad. After struggling with the other issues, I totally forgot that for Ubuntu, the value for the Kickstart Metadata differs from that for a Red Hat alike systems, such as Fedora 17.  The tree is there: http://@@http_server@@/cblr/ks_mirror/ubuntu-12.04.1-x86_64, and it is populated properly.

[root at cobbler ubuntu-12.04.1-x86_64]# ls -l
