[Spacewalk-list] Limit channel subscriptions

[Mullis, Josh (CCI-Atlanta)]

Thanks for the suggestions Jan.
I will look into that.


Would it be possible to add addition channel entitlements to this list here:
https://spacewalk/rhn/channels/software/Entitlements.do

All I see in there now is this:
Channel Entitlement	Regular Consumed	Regular Available	Consumed Flex Guests	Available Flex Guests	Systems Subscribed
Private Channel Family 1	 0	 Unlimited	 0	 Unlimited	 0

Or you can create separate organization with a limited amount of
"Management" entitlements. That org would have access to that
channel. Not perfect.

Or remove users to log-in into Spacewalk (and alter their
channel set) and only give them activation keys when they need
to register.

Regards,
Jan
