Bug 502832

I've made the following changes. Please let me know if they are correct and I will commit them to the final English docs. Thanks in advance!

In Reference Guide (7.2.4, Installing the SSH Key):

Changed /opt/nocpulse/.ssh/authorized_keys to /var/lib/nocpulse/.ssh/authorized_keys


In the Installation Guide (4.4. Sendmail Configuration):
Changed the line
ln -s /opt/notification/scripts/ack_enqueuer.pl /etc/smrsh/

into

ln -s /var/log/notification/scripts/ack_enqueuer.pl /etc/smrsh/


In the Installation Guide (7.1 Log Files):
In Table 7.1, changed "Monitoring infrastructure" from /home/nocpulse/var/ to /var/lib/nocpulse

In Table 7.1, changed "Monitoring notifications" from /opt/notification/var/ to /var/log/notification/

This should be changed to:

ln -s /usr/bin/ack_enqueuer.pl /etc/smrsh/

Correct.

Correct.

Okay, thanks for the clarification on the path of /usr/bin/ack_enqueuer.pl
Fixed in the latest build of the affected manuals:

http://documentation-stage.bne.redhat.com/docs/en-US/Red_Hat_Network_Satellite/5.3.0/html/Reference_Guide/s1-mon-rhnmd.html#s2-mon-rhnmd-ssh

fails.. the old location for nocpulse is listed

8.2.4. Installing the SSH key

Whether you use rhnmd or sshd, you must install the Red Hat Network Monitoring Daemon public SSH key on the systems to be monitored to complete the secure connection. To install it:

   1.

      Navigate to the Monitoring ⇒ Scout Config Push page on the Satellite interface and click the name of the RHN Server that will monitor the client system. The SSH id_dsa.pub key is visible on the resulting page.
   2.

      Copy the character string (beginning with ssh-dss and ending with the hostname of the RHN Server).
   3.

      On the command line of the system to be monitored, switch to the user aligned with the daemon. This is accomplished for rhnmd with the command:

      su - nocpulse

   4.

      Paste the key character string into the ~/.ssh/authorized_keys file for the daemon's user. For rhnmd, this is /opt/nocpulse/.ssh/authorized_keys.

Paste the key character string into the ~/.ssh/authorized_keys file for the daemon's user. For rhnmd, this is /var/lib/nocpulse/.ssh/authorized_keys.

If config management is enabled on the systems to be monitored, you may deploy this file across systems using a config channel. Refer to Section 7.7.1, “Preparing Systems for Config Management” for details.

Look at Installation Guide, 7.1. Log Files:

Monitoring infrastructure  is /var/lib/nocpulse/ directory 
    should be /var/log/nocpulse/

Other 2 location are correctly fixed.
