Hi,
So then your workstations have the spacewalk server
and your local yum repository setup to get RPMs from. Am I
understanding that correctly?
No, my workstations have only spacewalk repository by rhnplugin
Or how do the work stations get something from say EPEL that isn't
setup via it's activation key channels?
In my spacewalk server I have a channel for every different repository:
Centos base, updates, extras, Epel, Rpmforge, Karan , Spacewalk-client
and another with my personal rpms. Every night, a cron script, sync all
repositories from external source with 'reposync -l bla bla bla ' ('-l'
flag = enable yum plugin support) to a local directories on my spacewalk
server; in this way I manage 'priority plugin'. Then, same script, sync
my local mirrors with spacewalk channels (spacewalk-repo-sync bla bla bla)
My activation keys have as base channel, CentOS Base and as child
channels, all other channels. So, with 'yum install bla bla' I can
install a rpm belong to Epel, from my spacewalk server ...

Hi,
workstations are connected to spacewalk server repository by
'rhnplugin'; I think you can enable or disable a channel modifing
'/etc/yum/pluginconf.d/rhnplugin.conf':
/etc/yum/pluginconf.d/rhnplugin.conf
[main]
enabled = 1
gpgcheck = 1
# You can specify options per channel, e.g.:
#
#[rhel-i386-server-5]
#enabled = 1
#
#[some-unsigned-custom-channel]
#gpgcheck = 0
But you cannot manage priority, AFAIK. I manage it in this way:
- first, I sync external repositories (centos update, extras,
rpmforge, epel and karan) with 'reposync -l bla bla bla ' ('-l' flag =
enable yum plugin support) to a local directories on my spacewalk server
-then I sync my local mirrors with spacewalk channels
(spacewalk-repo-sync bla bla bla)

Hi,
I'm trying to understand the relationship of the files
in /etc/yum.repos.d/*.rep once a system is configured to sync against
the spacewalk server. Are those files not used at all once the system
is using spacewalk? If not is there a place that you can configure
the repo settings like priority, enabled, etc?
Thanks,
~Jet
