[Spacewalk-list] Repository URL?

[fnwsa at yahoo.com]

Sorry about the dump everyone and thank you for your tolerance :)


Alan,
I've found this one: Using spacewalk as a redhat satellite replacement (http://www.codarama.com/drupal/?q=node/4)


It should be the right instruction for how to use Spacewalk as Satellite.

Is following the right URL to put into the Repository URL in  Spacewalk's Create New Repository page?

ftp://ftp.redhat.com/pub/redhat/linux/enterprise/6Server/en/os/SRPMS/

Hi Alan,

Thank you very much for your very helpful reply!!

My purpose is to patch all of our RHEL5x/6x systems, so I need to "connect to RHN and download all of the available RPMS and populate your Spacewalk repository" as you said. Please correct me if I am wrong here.

I've just installed mrepo, but still don't understand the whole picture. With mrepor's help, can Spacewalk connect directly to the RHN servers? What URL should be used in the Repository URL? Yes, I have RHN userid and password.


Have a nice day!

Nick

Nick,
   When I click on the link, the browser takes me to the repodata sub-directory. When I tried backing up a couple of levels, I never saw any RPMs. 
 
Can I assume that you want to connect to RHN and download all of the available RPMS and populate your Spacewalk repository? If so, you’ll have to download and install a utility called mrepo because Spacewalk doesn’t have the ability to connect directly to the RHN servers. 
 
Also,  must also have a valid RHN userid and password for mrepo to connect.

Hi, I am now trying to create my first Repository for RHEL 6 (64bit) systems. Can I use the following link as Repository URL in  Spacewalk's Create New Repository page?

ftp://ftp.redhat.com/pub/redhat/linux/enterprise/6Server/en/os/x86_64/Debuginfo/repodata/

If it's not the right one, where can I find it?

Thank  you in advance!

Nick
