Bug Description
When provisioning real hardware using cobbler, the cobbler command is executed multiple times using `sudo`. This is annoying since for the utah server there isn't any password for the utah user that I know of, so every command that is executed as root fails.
One way to fix this would be to automatically grant permissions to the `utah` user to run commands as root.
This is related to bug#1047351. However, note that in this bug permissions are required in the server and in the other bug the permissions are required in the client.

Some of the provisioning classes have _depcheck or another function to verify requirements are in place before they even try to do anything. I think maybe doing a "sudo cobbler status" possibly via self._cobbler( ['status' ]) in CobblerMachine as part of the constructor would make sense. This could also be a class setup method maybe, but I'm not as familiar with those.
