yes, we usually use a default that runs a kickstart containing the
$SNIPPET('cobbler_register'). This will create the system records for
you.
I do not understand how an auto-register snippet is useful if you'd need
to add the system
to Cobbler before being able to provision it. Could you explain better?
I'm not familiar with this
part of the code.
Anyway, copying koan's register.py to all systems and running it to auto
register each system in
Cobbler is a good option. My original suggestion of using arp from
Cobbler server to systems
was more limited.
