I am working with the bonded interfaces option for 1.4. For one server it works great, I can add two bonded interfaces and a couple of non-bonded ones. Everything comes up rosy.

However cobbler sync is taking about 8 seconds when I have one interface, and about 20 seconds with six. I add another system with another 6 interfaces, it takes 3 minutes and times out. If I delete an interface from each system, sync takes around 2 minutes but at least it succeeds. It is definitely related to dhcp since if I disable that in settings, sync comes back right away.

This is the error I get (after 3 minutes):

ng00ud01# cobbler sync

join() is too long for a Python string

    data_out = data_out.replace("@@%s@@" % str(x), str(search_table[str(x)]))

Any ideas?? TIA...
