So, our cobbler server was going along fine, doing the right thing,

suddenly it has started putting the IP address of the cobbler web server
from which to get the kickstart file into the per-system pxelinux config
files instead of using the name (as given in the system config file).
This seems to coincide with the update to the new 2.0.9 version in EPEL.
This breaks our setup, because we're actually behind a proxy that uses
named-based virtual hosts.
If one wanted to use IP addresses rather than names, we could put *those* in
the config file. Why the change? Is there an option somewhere to force the
old behavior?
I think I remembered this. Looks like it was a change to allow s390 to
have an easier chance at getting everything to fit on the kernel command
line. Currently, there is no way to fix this, but I think we might be
able to fix this in the next release.
