Using Cobbler to mirror Ubuntu repos
by Larry J Prikockis
Hi! We are a mixed Ubuntu/Redhat (or Centos) shop and recently I've
been toying around with Cobbler to hopefully simplify workstation and
server builds. I realize Cobbler was initially geared primarily
towards yum/rpm-based distros and was happy to find a few articles such
as:
http://michaeldehaan.net/post/39496835943/experiences-with-cobbler-deploy...
that provided a little more detail than the Cobbler docs on getting
things working with Ubuntu.
I'm a little confused though about the "proper" way to set up repo
mirroring for various Ubuntu distributions.
For instance, if I set up a repo called ubuntu12.04LTS-x86_64 using
Arch=x86_64, Breed=apt, Apt Components=main restricted universe
multiverse and Apt Dist Names=precise precise-updates precise-security
how should I be configuring my sources.list file in order to get all its
updates from this mirror?
Are there any docs or examples that go into a little more detail of
using Cobbler to manage a local mirror for Ubuntu?
thanks!
