Hi Karl, maybe there is a misunderstanding: I guess you refer to the chapter "Connect Clients" at the client configuration guide but actually I haven't reached the stage to do something on the client. The error already happened during the generation of the bootstrap script with the WebUI following the link to chapter of the client configuration guide that you provided. Seems that this procedure uses a sudo to create the bootstrap script. Meanwhile I found the reasons for my troubles with both bootstrapping procedures: After installation of opensuse I installed our default sudoers file, which didn't contain the includedir-statement for /etc/sudoers.d/ . Unfortunately this directory contains the sudoers settings for spacewalk... ;) So finally "Register Clients with the Web UI" was successful. Actually there still is an issue with a message "Cannot read/write '/var/lib/salt/.ssh/known_hosts'. Please check permissions.". I created this file manually and afterwards klicking "+Bootstrap" was successful. For now it will be fine to add each new host key "manually". Thanks for your efforts!

BTW: Due to security reason I doubt that it's a good idea to give tomcat root rights via sudo.
I'd not fiddle with changing permissions. I'd install root's public ssh key on the client and then run the bootstrap as root without entering a password. I hope I understand what your plans are. Maybe, there are special requirements at your site.
