Subject: Kickstart and snippet
Hi,
When kickstarting a system it gets automatically registered by the use
of the cobbler snippet 'redhat_register'. Is there a way to disable this
completely?
The main reason for my question is that cobbler adds a default key to
all systems using the "Red Hat Management Key" variable, and we don't
want that. I've tried to edit the cobbler profiles to remove that
auto-generated key, but I don't seem to be able to do that.
We're adding our own activation keys in a post script and re-registering
the system, which causes the system to be registered twice. Once with
the by cobbler auto generated key, and once with our keys.

I think you should be able to set 'redhat_management_type' to 'off' in
the cobbler config file. There are a couple other RHEL key settings in there as well.
You may need to restart cobbler after making any config changes.

# Are you using a Red Hat management platform in addition to Cobbler?
# Cobbler can help you register to it. Choose one of the following:
# "off" : I'm not using Red Hat Network, Satellite, or Spacewalk
# "hosted" : I'm using Red Hat Network
# "site" : I'm using Red Hat Satellite Server or Spacewalk

redhat_management_type: "hosted"

You might also be able to get away with commenting or removing the
'redhat_register' snippet from your kickstart template(s), however I personally
would consider this option to be a less desirable solution.

Doesn't that destroy all cooperation between cobbler and our Spacewalk
server?
I've gotten more references to "my kickstart templates" - I have no idea
where they might be.
I've found some samples in /var/lib/cobbler/kickstarts/ where I've tried
to comment out the snippet to no avail.
I've also tried commenting out the snippet in all files under
/var/lib/rhn/kickstarts/wizard as well, this does not affect my
kickstart-files either.
Please help, where are the templates used by cobbler and/or Spacewalk?
