ah ok yes - /var/www/cobbler/kickstart still has the variables but 
/var/www/cobbler/kickstart_sys has system specific kickstarts in there. 
I have tried a

# koan -r -p CentOS-4.4-i386 -y box-2 -s 192.168.10.4

as CentOS-4.4-i386 is the new profile i want to build and box-2 is the 
name of the machine i want to rebuild. I was rathing expecting that to 
work but alas no.

I have to manage 4000+ boxes so i need to be able to rebuild them to a 
different profile as easy as possible and koan would be perfect.
