5.3. Script Use
Finally, when you're finished preparing the script for use, you are ready to run it. Log into the RHN Satellite Server or RHN Proxy Server, navigate to the
/var/www/html/pub/bootstrap/ directory and run the following command, altering the hostname and name of the script as needed to suit the system type:
catbootstrap-EDITED-NAME.sh|sshroot@CLIENT_MACHINE1/bin/bash
A less secure alternative is to use either
wget or curl to retrieve and run the script from every client system. Log into each client machine and issue the following command, altering script and hostname accordingly:
wget -qO -\https://your-satellite.example.com/pub/bootstrap/bootstrap-EDITED-NAME.sh\ |/bin/bash
Or with,
curl:
curl -Sks\https://your-satellite.example.com/pub/bootstrap/bootstrap-EDITED-NAME.sh\ |/bin/bash
When this script has been run on each client system, all should be configured to use the RHN Server.
