Yes, it’s certainly given me something to think about.
Thanks everyone.

Hi All,
Its been a while now that ubutnu has had kickstart capability, I was
wondering if there is any upgrade as to when spacewalk will allow you to do
ubuntu kickstarts without having to fudge a fix for it?
Thanks

Hi Jeff,
Yes, it is a two-step process but it is a workaround to the Spacewalk server
not having the subscription to other distributions (or even major releases).
For example, if your Spacewalk server is RHEL 7, and you want to download/push
RHEL 6 packages using a local machine you can
RHEL 6 (my mirror repo) pulling from RH
[rhel-6-server-rpms]
metadata_expire = 86400
sslclientcert = /etc/pki/entitlement/3922910052842520258.pem
baseurl =
https://cdn.redhat.com/content/dist/rhel/server/6/$releasever/$basearch/os
ui_repoid_vars = releasever basearch
sslverify = 1
name = Red
HTH,
That sounds better than my solution by far. Well, same solution but more
streamlined. So you do a reposync using a script, then use rhnpush to push to
satellite? Is that right?

Hi Phil,
I use Spacewalk to centrally manage multiple distributions and different major
releases within each distribution, as you are seeking to accomplish.
Understanding that the Linux server running Spacewalk would not have access to
all of the different proprietary subscriptions, this was
Hi Jeffrey
Thanks for your reply. It seems I would have been better off by starting with
installing Spacewalk on a RHEL 7 server rather than an OL 7 server then? Can
you just clarify/confirm what URL's you've configured for the RHEL 6/7
repositories please (obviously, for the RHEL 6 local,
Hi Waldirio
Thanks for your response and I’ll take a look at those links. I didn’t think
there would be any problem patching RHEL servers with Satellite, as that was
exactly what it was designed to do, but have you had any success with using the
same system to patch Oracle 6/7 systems as well
