Avi,

I've never looked at the configuration channels before.  I'll give a try.


Thank you for the information.


Daryl

Nope. :)

What you want to do is create a configuration channel that stores your GPG keys 
and then use the configuration mechanism to distribute the keys to your servers.

Take a look at the docs here: 
https://docs.oracle.com/cd/E52668_01/E71078/html/swk24-efx_f33_ls.html
10.4 Working with Configuration 
Channels<https://docs.oracle.com/cd/E52668_01/E71078/html/swk24-efx_f33_ls.html>
docs.oracle.com
In the same way that a software channel in Spacewalk contains packages for 
installation on multiple client systems, a configuration channel contains files 
for ...




Essentially, a configuration channel is a mechanism whereby Spacewalk can 
distribute either text or binary files to target client systems. You can create 
multiple configuration channels and subscribe client systems to one or more of 
them. You can also specify priorities so that client systems will pull files 
from the most specific to least specific configuration channel.

You need to have the rhncfg* RPMs installed on each target system and you need 
to have the rhn-actions-control enabled so that remote configuration is allowed.

The documentation covers all of this both during provisioning of a new system 
or on an existing system:

https://docs.oracle.com/cd/E52668_01/E71078/html/swk24-lvx_12k_js.html

Hope that helps,
Avi
