Thanks for clarifying that.

Our file servers are NFS, we don't provide file service by any other
means. We provide script access to *suse(autoyast),
fedora/centos/redhat(kickstart/cobbler) & *solaris(jumpstart) Guests
this way with no issues. Have for ages.
Simply looking for basic, functional parity in Debian.
Not clear if that's what you're asking; I'm never quite sure how to
answer these "why" questions ... other than it's not what we seek to
do. Just like I'm looking to do this in Debian -- not some other
distro that has the capability.
Hth.
