Hi Michael,<br>
A few more questions...<br>
<br>
About this.. " On the other hand you need to sync RHEL content to Spacewalk server first.To be able to sync that content directly from <a href="http://rhn.redhat.com" target="_blank">rhn.redhat.com</a> you need a certificate; this cert is a part of Red Hat Satellite subscription."<br>
- We need a certificate to be able to sync RHEL clients using Spacewalk, correct? Would we need to purchase a (Satellite) license to do this?<br>
<br>
- I had seen this on Spacewalk's FAQ and sounds like Spacewalk cannot be used for RHEL. Could your clarify?<br>
"Can I use Spacewalk to sync my entitlements for Red Hat Enterprise Linux and other Red Hat software products?<br>
No. In order to be able to connect to <a href="http://rhn.redhat.com" target="_blank">rhn.redhat.com</a> and satellite-sync Red Hat software content, you need the Satellite product with an active Satellite certificate."<br>
<br>
- I had heard that in order to serve out RHEL v5 and v6 repo's in Spacewalk you would need to set up 2 separate servers for each. Is that correct?<br>
<br>
- I had heard that RHN Classic is going away in 2017 and moving to Subscription Manager. Will that affect Spacewalk's functionality with RedHat?<br>
<br>
Thank you,<br>

% Hi Michael,<br>
% Thank you for the email. I have read that Spacewalk can manage several different distro's such as Ubuntu and SLES. I am interested in this but also I am interested in serving RHEL x86_64 v5 and v6. Could you tell me if Spacewalk can do that out of the box or does it require some tweaks or changes?<br>
<br>
Hello Jason,<br>
<br>
Spacewalk is able to manage RHEL systems without any modification.<br>
<br>
On the other hand you need to sync RHEL content to Spacewalk server first.<br>
To be able to sync that content directly from <a href="http://rhn.redhat.com" target="_blank">rhn.redhat.com</a> you need a certificate; this cert is a part of Red Hat Satellite subscription.<br>
<br>
% Thank you,<br>
