RHN Spacewalk question

linux_princess · 10-19-2015, 11:27 AM

Hi There,

I want to install a script using spacewalk command line interface. It needs to be able to push out a password change to all my virtual Linux servers. It will be using rhn. But I'm new to spacewalk. Can someone please point me in the direction of what is the best place to begin to learn about spacewalk command line interface stuff?

I'm just wondering, what version of Linux are you using (Fedora)? And is this in an enterprise/production environment?

Just wondering as RHEL seems defacto for Enterprise.

thanks

I'm just wondering what type of setup you have at work where you have RHEL, however you are using Spacewalk? I know that Spacewalk is upstream from RH Satellite, which is what I use to patch management.
