Hi, We’ve got an Ubuntu 20.04 system which is set up to connect to the Uyuni server through a standard Squid proxy. It can do most typical client patching tasks against the Uyuni server fine: apt-get update, apt-get upgrade, etc. . I didn’t try pushing packages from the Uyuni side recently, though it used to work before inserting the web proxy. However the server is no longer checking in. It is in a DMZ so connections from the system to the Uyuni server are blocked except through the web proxy. This approach/mechanism worked with a traditional client config Ubuntu client and Spacewalk, where rhn_check was used to check in. Looking at the documentation, it looks like I should have set up and used a different activation key that used push via ssh. https://www.uyuni-project.org/uyuni-docs/en/uyuni/client-configuration/conta... Is there any way to convert a standard salt client into the salt-ssh contact method? Is there a recommended way to get myself out of the hole I’ve dug myself into here? I’ve got to think I’m not the first person with a system that needs to move into a DMZ after setup and needs a contact method change. I seem to remember reading that you need to take care in unregistering and reregistering clients, so I’m not sure if trying to do that with a new activation code would work. Does the push via ssh use salt-ssh via public/private key pair? That would seem to be more secure than a user/password approach.
