[Spacewalk-list] FW: redhat channel in spacewalk

Daryl

You can follow the Jean orientation, perfect. ;-), one point is, if you
need more the one version (RHEL5, RHEL6, RHEL7 for example), you need
configure 3 VM's :-)), because your rhel machine will be subscribed just in
one base channel.

If you know how to configure multiples channel in the same OS please share
us!

B'Regards
