Foreman » Smart Proxy

WORKAROUND: Edit /usr/share/foreman-proxy/modules/dhcp/dhcp_api.rb and replace the IP address on the line 17 to match your DHCP external service:

@server = Proxy::DHCP::ISC.new(:name => "127.0.0.1",

Then restart foreman-proxy service.

While this is certainly a useful thing to have, how does one go about the fact that *.conf files from ISC DHCP are expected to be locally available to Foreman smart-proxy (to read all subnets info since it is not available over OMAPI)?

NFS or rsync are proposed to be used for that? Something else?

Yes, NFS I think. Lukas wrote up some documentation on the foreman-dev list, but it hasn't been submitted as part of our manual. I put NFS as the recommendation in the manual for the :dhcp_server setting: http://theforeman.org/manuals/1.10/index.html#4.3.4DHCP

One little thing, guys. It appears that this new option did not make it into foreman-installer documentation at http://theforeman.org/manuals/1.10/index.html#3.2.2InstallerOptions

--foreman-proxy-dhcp-server

It is there in "foreman-installer --help" output though.

Thanks!
