Hi, we are having some troubles having spacewalk automatically mapping
systems groups according to external group on freeIPA.
(we followed
https://github.com/spacewalkproject/spacewalk/wiki/SpacewalkAndIPA<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__github.com_spacewalkproject_spacewalk_wiki_SpacewalkAndIPA&d=DwMFaQ&c=eIGjsITfXP_y-DLLX0uEHXJvU8nOHrUK8IrwNKOtkVU&r=kjYgKXRvPKJ-1Spwl9FaKBV5WMz2rUyGBr-Fiqe550E&m=rSzA3MmZpRi8pEibA7vpA9hiU7z6zQ4_QCJSz0PP0Z0&s=Y8Ifh8jlN4HnDBt6Q4aJDO1YnAOqE6pjhwJEp6C3V18&e=> with no
luck so far)

we are currently able to use pam for external authentication without
problem. users get the permissions we assign(like System Group
Administrator ), but we do not see the systems group automatically assigned
to that user, even that we mapped all.

any guidance to troubleshoot this behaviour?

thanks in advance!
JP

Hello,

I apologize for being a newb but I've been tasked to setup a Linux patching
system and Spacewalk seemed like a solution I could manage. I'm a fairly
green Linux admin and am not an expert on Linux systems.

Our environment consists of Oracle Enterprise Linux systems. I setup
spacewalk 2.9 on a fresh install of Oracle Enterprise Linux UEK. And used
the directions from this page https://oracle-base.com/articles/linux
/spacewalk-installation-on-oracle-linux#server-prerequisites<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__oracle-2Dbase.com_articles_linux_spacewalk-2Dinstallation-2Don-2Doracle-2Dlinux-23server-2Dprerequisites&d=DwMFaQ&c=eIGjsITfXP_y-DLLX0uEHXJvU8nOHrUK8IrwNKOtkVU&r=kjYgKXRvPKJ-1Spwl9FaKBV5WMz2rUyGBr-Fiqe550E&m=rSzA3MmZpRi8pEibA7vpA9hiU7z6zQ4_QCJSz0PP0Z0&s=KBXbWkE7dra_vVUyNjx8QlADNm0pQZdLRnN1t7wP3m8&e=>

Now that I have a GUI I have many questions about what the options mean on
the pages etc. Is there anything that can explain what these options are in
specifics? Also I guess I'm wondering if this is going to work with our
environment since we use Oracle Enterprise Linux UEK...... Or do I need to
revert to using Ksplice?

Thank you for any help!

Welcome,

I cannot answer any specifics regarding Oracle Linux as I do not have that distribution in our Spacewalk environment, but here is a link to the Spacewalk user documentation which you may find useful regarding its features:

Hello,

Recently I have built spacewalk on a redhat 7.0 server.
Configured channels for ubuntu and centos, which is working fine and clients are also registered properly.

Does anyone have any idea of creating repository for Redhat servers? Is redhat satellite is the only option for creating repository on spacewalk? (I have heard that Redhat is going to stop their support on Redhat 5).

Thank you for your help!
Debayan Mukherjee
