Could someone please explain to me why Spacewalk (a RH product) doesn't allow patching of RHEL systems? I would have assumed that this was a licensing thing, but Novell's SuSE Manager (which is even based on Spacewalk!) supports RHEL.
I see in the "Registering Clients" wiki that you can add RHEL systems to Spacewalk, but that "it will override some of the original base packages and you may well be invalidating your support agreement with Red Hat." I'm hesitant to even attempt this. If I have an RHN login, why can't I add the repos directly from RH? Does it really need to cost $13k/yr to mirror a RHEL repo remotely? Also, I see that there is "limited support" for Debian systems. Where is this in the development stage? I read that Simon released a Apt-Spacewalk package, is this stable yet? And does it work on Ubuntu, or just Debian? --- Jeff Bjorklund Systems Engineer | Peak 10, Inc. 425 Duke Drive, Suite 400, Franklin, TN 37067 email: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> www.peak10.com<http://www.peak10.com/?linkref=ES-01-PKTN-STND> MANAGED DATA CENTER SERVICES | HOSTING | VIRTUALIZED SERVICES | CLOUD Atlanta | Charlotte | Cincinnati | Jacksonville | Louisville | Nashville| Raleigh | Richmond | South Florida | Tampa
