Hi 



One of the patches in opensuse cobbler package confused me a bit. 



https://build.opensuse.org/package/show?project=systemsmanagement&package=cobbler
 



The patch users_patch.diff patches cobbler/action_reposync.py to do 



$ chown -R root:wwwrun 



after a reposync. But there is no wwwrun group in opensuse. The wwwrun user is 
in group www (see below). Since SLES is a bit difficult to come by i wonder if 
there is a wwwrun group there and that patch targets this platform. 



$ id wwwrun 

uid=30(wwwrun) gid=8(www) groups=126(git),8(www) 



In cobblerd.py it just uses user wwwrun (no group) which seems to be correct. 



And naturally i get this in a reposync log with the patch. 



[...] - DEBUG | received on stderr: chown: invalid group: 'root:wwwrun' 



Is someone here using cobbler on SLES (running. Not installing SLES)? I try to 
fix cobbler on openSUSE and perhaps it would be nice not to break it on SLES 
while doing that. So if someone running it on SLES here is willing to answer me 
some questions about that system if i need some clarifications that would be 
nice. 



Yes, I am (we are). 

I'll do my best to answer your questions :) 
I'm eduardok on freenode (#cobbler-devel), but feel free to email me directly. 

Soon, 

Ed
