Hi,

Thanks for your reply. It has been really helpful.

Below the process I've followed if it could help anybody else:

   - apt-get update


   - apt-get install apt-transport-spacewalk rhnsd


   - add following lines in my sources.list

deb http://ftp.debian.org/debian jessie-backports main

deb-src http://ftp.debian.org/debian jessie-backports main


   - apt-get update

   - apt-get install -t jessie-backports python-openssl

   - download my CA cert from spacewalk server


   - rhnreg_ks --serverUrl=<URL> --sslCACert=<CA-path>
   --activationkey=<debian_activationkey>

Thanks again Ben!

Seb.
