How can I make sure cobbler manages their dhcp addresses (I don't want two
dhcp servers)? Is there a way to have a profile that doesn't point to a
distro?
In theory if you just make an empty distro/profile and don't enable netboot
they should be able to be managed via cobbler system entries.
but if that fails and they are going away and you just need to temporary
support you can just put their entries in an include file and include that
file inside the dhcpd.template file.
