[Spacewalk-list] Low bandwidth locations

[Waldirio Manhães Pinheiro]

Matthew,

I believe be interesting know better your environment, btw, you can work
with proxy (between your company and filial/client) or really use Spacewalk
Proxy. With this you will probably work better, you have to check the
necessity according the quantity of clients or the problem caused by
latency.

Do a test with one proxy in your problematic environment and enjoy!

Let me know if works for you.

B'Regards
