Description of problem: Currently, the closest method for enrolling clients automatically is adding hosts beforehand with one time passwords and then launching unattended client installs. This, however, requires manual intervention by the admin for every host that needs to be added to the network. In our environment, users own and are responsible for their hosts. i.e. Users don't change that often, but they would like to enroll new hosts. If the hosts can be enrolled automatically based on some criteria (ip range or a regex of the fqdn), it would eliminate the dependence on the admin for enrolling hosts. This functionality already exists in NIS in the form of securenets.
