I am getting errors with cobbler import with --path=rsync://...
This is the first time I tried since upgrading to CentOS 7 cobbler-2.8.0-4.el7.x86_64, it used to work for me with version 2.6.
Here is the command and error to console (please excuse the line-folding):

The problem seems to be with import_tree getting set to a location relative to the current directory from which I am running the command.
I am able to successfully import from a DVD image, but would like to use rsync.
Thanks for any help Tony Schreiner
