Hi people,
I found out that cobbler-ext-nodes is ignoring the no_proxy
environment variable.
I need cobbler-ext-nodes to ignore http_proxy, or to pay attention to
no_proxy, in order to fetch data from the local network and not from
the server.
I've seen that cobbler-ext-nodes is using urlgrabber to fetch this
info, and that's why it is not using no_proxy (it is an old bug in
urlgrabber that didn't seem to be patched yet :S).
I don't think there is much we can do here. I'd file a bug against
urlgrabber and ask if they could fix it. I don't really want to get in
the business of working around broken code that we use. If you know of
a better library and want to provide a patch, I'd be happy to accept
it. Beyond that, I'm not sure what else we could do.
