I am still reading all the wiki info, making notes and looking for 
stuff.  No provisioning yet.  I suppose since this build is a through 
away one, I should do that.

I still have to figure out what ldap rpms to install, along with dhcp!

Quite a bit to go.  Perhaps I am getting too  bogged down in DNS, as I 
THINK I should know that part up until dlz.
