Puppet required?
by Avram Lubkin
I was looking over the project and it looks interesting, much improved over
Spacewalk. I particularly like how different projects are used instead of
one monolithic project. There's just one thing that concerns me. It looks
like if I want to do provisioning I have to use Foreman and if I use
Foreman I have to use Puppet. Since Puppet requires ruby installed on all
clients I can't deploy it. This is due to a security requirement. I can't
add interpreters to a system unless I have a good justification. I can do
what puppet does without adding another interpreter, so I can't justify it.
I know there are lots of organizations that use puppet and probably install
Ruby to support it, but I've never worked with a group that would allow
that. Any plans to support CFengine or something similar that wouldn't
require another interpreter on the clients? Python is Okay too, since any
RHEL or RHEL-like system already has it.
Please reply all, not on the list.
Thanks,

Question about supported databases
by Nick Harrison
I just discovered Katello and it looks like a great product. One
question I had was whether PostgreSQL was the only supported database or
if there were other supported platforms (ideally I would be able to
re-use the database product I already run in my environment). Would
someone clarify this for me? Thanks in advance.

katello ldap users password
by Marco Giunta
Hi at all,
I'm a Spacewalk users: I use it to manage some workstations, with the
help of some colleagues ... Now I'd like to migrate some workstations to
Katello. I've just install it, but I didn't find any documentation on
how to connect user manager part to our ldap server.
In Spacewalk (after creating pam configuration file), I have create some
users, with the same userid of our ldap, and then the user was able to
connect using same ldap password.
How to replicate the same behaviour in Katello ???
Regards,
Marco
