Hello Laurence, we actually had the question here a few days ago.
The field GPG key on the channel setup is information for the package installer on the CLIENT. It tells the package installer on the client where to find the GPG key for these packages. You have to enter it from the client point of view (in the same format the client would use it). So no URL. It must be a client local file location. 1. When you use Spacewalk to kickstart a server, you can configure the keys there and they get deployed on each new build. 2. When you provision otherwise, you have to place the non-default keys (i.e. not included in the OS) manually onto the server. How about adding the keys to a configuration channel and auto-deploy the channel contents on each new registration? You could then also use the channel to push new repos/keys to all clients, if required.

What are they for, as they don't seem to do anything and aren't used by yum to automatically add them to a client? To register new clients, my script has to do a wget the keys from /pub/gpg on my server and save in /etc/pki/rpm-gpg, but it seems like the channel should beagle to be utilized somehow. I have searched quite a bit looking for the answers on my own and thought I had seen and old spacewalk-list mention but cannot find again. ******************************************************************************* This e-mail and any of its attachments may contain Interactions LLC proprietary information, which is privileged, confidential, or subject to copyright belonging to the Interactions LLC.
