<div dir="ltr">OK, as was the original response to my question -- check epel (and perhaps jpackage?). When reading over the documentation for the install, it was using headers over paragraphs of text, each delineating what to do for different platforms, distros, and circumstances. Given that it looked like I'd done my part in following the instructions under the centos and rhel header, I moved on to the next section. Jpackage wasn't standing out to me because it didn't look like it was a subtopic of that section, or maybe it's just because it's almost 4 AM and I'm sleepy.<div><br></div><div>Some good lessons learned here though:<br><div><br></div><div>Thanks to Bernd Helber whose advice led to the the successful installation and implementation of spacewalk. I've got a running setup now, after playing around with ip-tables more than I really wanted to. RHEL 7 is a game changer and simply adding a rule like the following just won't work "-A INPUT -p tcp -m state --state NEW -m tcp --dport 5222 -j ACCEPT"</div><div><br></div><div>You have to go and add custom service xml files to /usr/lib/firewalld/services/ -or- /etc/sysconfig/services/, edit them for each port that spacewalk wants to use, and then restart firewalld and run firewall-cmd --add-service=mynewspacewalksvc</div><div><br></div><div> Side note: I named my spacewalk services "spacewalkpush" (5222) and "spacewalkprox" (5269).</div><div><br></div><div>Doing that will create the iptables rules that RHEL7/Centos 7 really want to see, in the "IN_public_allow" chain. Then things will work and you will be happy.</div><div><br></div><div>Now I'm in business!</div></div></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br clear="all"><div><div class="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr">-- <div>Tommy Butler</div></div></div></div>
