Good day fellow uyuni users.

I would like to leverage the salt-api that is used by uyuni.

Currently the uyuni API does not have a method to list, accept or deny a salt-key. But the salt api does.

I would like to do something like is mentioned here: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/19067341/using-salt-api-to-call-salt-key-remotely

I have inspected the salt-api that is setup on uyuni and it is currently set up to only listen on the loopback interface which is easy to change.

The next problem I have seems to be that the file based admin authentication does not match the admin account that I used to set up uyuni. I'm wondering if it is stored somewhere in the database for internal communication with the salt-api?

Is there a safe way to get/set the password without disrupting internal comms with the api?

Or is there a way to set up a second salt-api on the same box? I'm not a saltstack guru so I would love it if someone could point me in the right direction.

Thanks
