Hi,
I am just pondering about the design of the "Details of Registration Server" dialog, where the user is able to modify the registration server and to administer needed certificates and I have some questions about it:
- Do we want to do configuration of registration server via GUI at all?
No. I don't see this requested and it also wouldn't match our target audience (unexperienced users).
Well, SMT is able to handle appliances and that is a valid use cases.
Having the registration server configurable in a config file ? I fully agree.
Well,, for appliance, we do not have anything like 'installation parameter' to set up registration server. We need other means to provide easy way to adapt this during deployment.
For what is this web yast module? Only for appliances or should it replace (some day) the current (traditional) yast module? If it should replace the traditional yast module, the functionallity to change the registration server URI is required. Customers asked for this and are very happy, that we have this now in SLE11. So creating a new module which remove this feature again, is a step back. And also for the appliance only case we should think about adding this feature. How many customers using an appliance "feel good" to use an editor or an commandline tool to change the registration server URL to use its own SMT server? -- MFG Michael Calmer -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Michael Calmer SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, Maxfeldstr. 5, D-90409 Nuernberg T: +49 (0) 911 74053 0 F: +49 (0) 911 74053575 - e-mail: Michael.Calmer@suse.com -------------------------------------------------------------------------- SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, GF: Markus Rex, HRB 16746 (AG Nürnberg)
