Description Mike McCune 2013-12-18 14:47:47 UTC 
We get lots of trouble reports of users who forget to pass in the --proxy options during the katello-configure step.

This causes issues later on when they attempt to upload Subscription Manifests and sync content.

Since this is so common we should add a note or section to:

2.3. Configuring Red Hat Satellite

to mention these options:

     --proxy-url=PROXY_URL
      --proxy-port=PROXY_PORT
      --proxy-user=PROXY_USER
           HTTP Proxy user (proxy username, if auth is required)
      --proxy-pass=PROXY_PASS
           HTTP Proxy pass (proxy password, if auth is required)
Comment 4 Mike McCune 2014-04-03 03:44:52 UTC 
Definitely still relevant but I now realized we are lacking Proxy options!!

# katello-installer --help |grep proxy
    --capsule-foreman-proxy-port  Port on which will foreman proxy listen (default: 9090)
    --capsule-register-in-foreman  Register proxy back in Foreman (default: true)

we need to update our installer to include these options.

Hi Eric,

From http://projects.theforeman.org/issues/6530:
Can I confirm if this has been fixed and it should now allow just proxy options url and port without the username and password needed?

This was delivered with Satellite 6.0 which was released on 10 September 2014.
