Description Rich Jerrido 2013-10-18 09:29:05 UTC 
Description of problem:

Section 6.4.2 of the Satellite 5.6 User Guide [1] provides a non-working Python script. The docs provide:

"
#!/usr/bin/python
client = xmlrpclib.Server('https://satellite.example.com/rpc/api')
key = client.auth.login('username', 'password')
client.system.scap.scheduleXccdfScan(key, 1000010001,
    '/usr/local/share/scap/usgcb-rhel5desktop-xccdf.xml',
    '--profile united_states_government_configuration_baseline')
"

It should provide
"#!/usr/bin/python
import xmlrpclib
client = xmlrpclib.Server('https://satellite.example.com/rpc/api')
key = client.auth.login('username', 'password')
client.system.scap.scheduleXccdfScan(key, 1000010001,
    '/usr/local/share/scap/usgcb-rhel5desktop-xccdf.xml',
    '--profile united_states_government_configuration_baseline')
"
