[003] - Cobbler 0.4.6 
  by Michael DeHaan (http://freshmeat.net/users/mpdehaan/)
  Thu, Apr 5th 2007 14:47

Software Development :: Libraries :: Python Modules
System :: Boot
System :: Operating System :: Linux Distributions

About: Cobbler is a command line tool for configuring provisioning and
update servers. It supports provisioning via PXE, virtualization (Xen),
and re-provisioning an existing Linux system ("auto-kickstarting") when
having a PXE environment isn't possible. The latter two features are
enabled by usage of ’koan’ (a client side provisioning application) on the
remote system. Update server features include yum mirroring over rsync://
and integration of those mirrors with kickstart. Cobbler is easy to use
and has an accompanying Python API. It supports RHEL4+, Fedora Core 5+,
and derivative distributions.

Changes: This release more tightly integrates yum repository management by
integrating support for yum reposync (http://, ftp://, and limited support
for RHN channels) and better tying kickstart generation in with repository
management. For yum-powered distributions, the cobbler server can now act
as an automatic mirror for core package content in addition to
extras/updates. This release addresses a few bugs related to syslog status
logging and repository management.

About: DConnect Daemon is a daemon that acts as a Direct Connect hub. It
is written in pure C and utilizes threads. It aims to be very fast, with a
very good protocol implementation. 

Changes: Because full support for syslog is included, the old way of
logging to files was removed. Switch to syslog-ng is recommended as it
will make your logs cleaner. Silent mode is now switched on so it is
impossible to redirect users who should not have access to the service you
provide.
