Applied and very useful, thanks!
By "cobbler reposync test repo names", Ben means that you can list repos
that you want to explictly sync on the command line, without having to
sync everything.
There isn't a command called "test repo names" :)
As an example, basically "cobbler reposync fc6i386updates
fc6x8664updates" would sync both sets of updates for fc6, and leave out
f7. You can sync as few or as
many repos as you like.
If you only want to edit a certain repo sporadically (say a repo for 3rd
party drivers or ISV software, or a mirror of some RPMs your company has
produced internally), "repo edit --name=foo --keep-updated=False" will
do the trick, and "cobbler reposync foo" will still force it to sync
when needed.
