Ray was/is working on this but ran into a snag regarding a Python
version dependency that wasn't available until RHEL6. I told him that
I would re-build the VM on RHEL6, but I also ran into a snag in
building it. I need to talk to you (Jeff) re: cobbler to see where my
problem is. After this is built he's going to re-rsync the data and it
should be ready to go.

Am I correct in my understanding that ldap is going to go on the
smaller of the two new machines? Should / can dns go with it? Do we
want to keep them separated? Remember, we do have a secondary NS
server now at the Canonical DC.

If nfs should not be virtualized where do we suggest that goes? Do we
want to put it just on combobox or the new R610? I guess the question
I'm getting to now is: if we virtualize pretty much everything, are we
getting rid of the old out-of-warranty hardware (which is just about
everything)?
