Try to go trough the SW/FreeIPA documentation 
(https://github.com/spacewalkproject/spacewalk/wiki/SpacewalkAndIPA) 
DON'T COPY PASTE, read, understand and skip the parts of ipa installation and 
config as you already have sssd up and running so that should be sufficient. 
Take a backup before you mess around with you SW deployment so I won't feel bad 
about the tips! 

As far as the channel related stuff, after you have the external auth working 
for rhn admins, you should be able to map another group for dev's with specific 
permissions (subscribe/unsubscribe systems to software channels) 

That's at least how the theory would be, personally I would prefer to add all 
development required software channels to the whole development env/machines, 
and they can install whatever they want from that channels. 
It will save you the hassle of educating users on how to use spacewalk or other 
time consuming questions.

SW 2.7 on RHEL 7.4 



The HTTPD conf files are either commented out, or in the case of 
auth_kerb.conf, empty. This is a completely out of the box setup and the only 
documentation I’ve been able to find on this on RH’s portal mentions just the 
config changes I made. Nothing to do with the files you mentioned. 



Is there a better how-to to describe the full changes that need to take place 
to enable this? 



As far as role map, I only want end users to be able to subscribe to additional 
software channels that we don’t push by default. For example, we don’t have 
Microsoft’s channel in our base activation key, but would like to give our 
developers an opportunity to install software from it without admin 
intervention. 



It appears that doing spacewalk-channel –add –c microsoft_rhel7 prompts for a 
username and password so they are unable to add the channel.

Spacewalk version and OS please... 


Also log entries except the tomcat would be helpful. 





What's the content of following: 
/etc/httpd/conf.d/intercept_form_submit.conf 


/etc/httpd/conf.d/ authnz_pam.conf 


/etc/httpd/conf.d/ auth_kerb.conf 





I don't think that you need to create the user if you do role map for external 
authenticated users ( Admin -> Users -> External Authentication -> Group Role 
Mapping )

Hi! 



I’m looking to potentially use SSSD and Active Directory to authenticate our 
users to Spacewalk. The Spacewalk server is already on the domain and we 
authenticate just fine via SSH using AD. 



I added the following to the rhn.conf file: 

pam_auth_service = spacewalk-satellite 



Created the spacewalk-satellite pam.d file: 

#%PAM-1.0 



auth required pam_env.so 

auth sufficient pam_sss.so no_user_check 

auth required pam_deny.so 



account required pam_sss.so no_user_check 



Restarted spacewalk. Created a user mdiorio in the GUI and checked the box to 
use PAM. 



But get the following error when I go to log in. 



Mar 12 11:51:21 la-1pspacewalk server: 2018-03-12 11:51:21,304 
[ajp-bio-0:0:0:0:0:0:0:1-8009-exec-4] WARN 
com.redhat.rhn.domain.user.legacy.UserImpl - PAM login for user User mdiorio 
(id 2, org_id 1) failed with error Permission denied. 

Mar 12 11:51:23 la-1pspacewalk server: 2018-03-12 11:51:23,304 
[ajp-bio-0:0:0:0:0:0:0:1-8009-exec-4] INFO 
com.redhat.rhn.frontend.action.LoginAction - LOCAL AUTH FAILURE: [mdiorio] 



I can kinit my account on the server without a problem. 



Not sure what I’m missing. Thanks!
