<div>Do you not use cobbler? You should be able to get cobbler to generate dhcpd (ISC)/named(bind) configurations as well as (in my opinion) the easier dnsmasq.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>In order to get it to add to the configurations, you need to add the host to cobbler before you kickstart. i.e., use <b>cobbler system add</b> and ensure you set the appropriate fields (hostname, network, etc).</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>After the system is added, you'd perform a <b>cobbler sync</b> to get the configurations generated for the new host. In fact, you'd should see a dhcpd.conf file entry that looks almost identical to the one you posted.</div>

<div>Thanks!</div>

<div>Hi,<br>
<br>
<br>
</div>
<div>I am following the url to configure Kickstart <a href="https://fedorahosted.org/spacewalk/wiki/HowToKickstartCobbler">
https://fedorahosted.org/spacewalk/wiki/HowToKickstartCobbler</a> . I have few questions to test for one machine and bigger network. I didn't work on Kickstart that much.<br>
<br>
</div>
<div>1) I want the kickstart to test for one IP. How can i restrict for one IP . Do I need to give below statements in dhcpd.conf for one IP or any better way ?<br>
<br>
host test {<br>
hardware ethernet 00:50:56:99:15:d6;<br>
fixed-address 192.20.3.250;<br>
}<br>
<br>
</div>
<div>2) In a bigger network where multi subnets works. How should I install new OS on the new machine. Do I need to restrict dhcpd.conf every time to restrict one IP. How will i manage ?<br>
<br>
</div>
<div>3) If there is a running machine and by mistake it boot up with PXE . This can reformat the machine and install the OS. How can i overcome this ?<br>
<br>
<br>
</div>
<div>Thanks,<br>
