There's no way to do it via the UI. I've done it via creating a user via the UI and then changing the relevant column in the table that contains the usernames. (In a test scenario, I was authenticating via PAM, and my username was 'hile', so I initially created my SW user as 'coyhile' and changed it manually.) It was a simple UPDATE query in Oracle to do so. _______________________________________________ Spacewalk-list mailing list [email protected] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/spacewalk-list
