[et-mgmt-tools] dhcp.template and multiple subnets

[Peter Wright]

hi,
just noticed an issue when you define multiple subnets in 
dhcp.template.  it seems that if you have setup your template file to 
use mutiple subnets dhpcd will fail to start unless you have tagged a 
system to live on one of the secondary subnets.  for example take this 
dhcp.template:

subnet 172.30.214.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
...
}

$insert_cobbler_system_definitions

subnet 172.30.206.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
...
}

$insert_cobbler_system_definitions_abq



restarting dhcpd (or running cobbler sync) will fail due to the fact 
that "$insert_cobbler_system_definitions_abq" will litterally end up in 
/etc/dhpcd.conf.  once you tag a system to use the secondary subnet (in 
this case --dhcp-tag=abq) the $insert_cobbler... variable is expanded 
correctly and dhcp restarts as expected.

i am not sure if anyone else has run into this, or if this issue can we 
worked around (i am not too familiar with how template's).

-pete
