Registering Clients Against Smt Test Environment - Novell LINUX ENTERPRISE 10 SP2 - SUBSCRIPTION MANAGEMENT TOOL GUIDE Manual

1 Copy the /usr/share/doc/packages/smt/clientSetup4SMT.sh
script at your SMT server to the client machine.
2 As root, execute the script on the client machine. The script can be executed
in two ways. In the first case, the script name is followed by the registration URL:
./clientSetup4SMT.sh registration_URL, for example,
./clientSetup4SMT.sh
https://smt.example.com/center/regsvc. In the second case, the
script name is followed by the --host option followed by hostname of the SMT
server: ./clientSetup4SMT.sh --host server_hostname, for ex-
ample, ./clientSetup4SMT.sh --host smt.example.com.
3 The script downloads the server's CA certificate. Accept it by pressing y .
4 The script performs all necessary modifications on the client. However, the reg-
istration itself is not performed by the script.
5 Perform a registration by executing suse_register or running yast2
inst_suse_register module on the client.
The clientSetup4SMT.sh script works with SUSE Linux Enterprise 10 SP1 and
SP2 systems.
