Oh glad to hear it. Yes, I generated my CSR for SW on the server so it just 
worked as documented for the  most part.

get 3rd party cert to work with osa-dispatcher and jabber

SUCCESS!

Ok, so the main issue is that all of the available docs "assume" that the CSR 
is generated on the Spacewalk server, which is not always the case.  Since we 
use a tool for our company, and you do the CSR on the tool itself....you have 
to download that in addition to the cert.  You also have to use the private key.

So the additional steps in my case were:

retrieve the CSR and copy it to /root/ssl-build/<hostname>/server.csr

retrieve the .key file, use openssl rsa to strip the password out, and copy it 
to /root/ssl-build/<hostname>/server.key


In addition, these steps in the Redhat doc break osa-dispatcher:

# cp /etc/httpd/conf/ssl.key/server.key /etc/jabberd/server.pem
# cat /etc/httpd/conf/ssl.crt/server.crt >> /etc/jabberd/server.pem
# cp /etc/jabberd/server.pem /etc/pki/spacewalk/jabberd/server.pem

Do NOT do those steps.

With the exception of the additional steps I did regarding the key and csr, I 
followed the current Spacewalk 2.6 Oracle document linked to previously.


Thanks everybody for the help!
