Description Matt Domsch 2006-10-13 04:19:49 UTC
Description of problem:
A system admin using Dell's internal RHN Satellite Server created a new
activation key, and set it with "Universal default: yes", but shouldn't have. 
This caused all sorts of problems with new registrations of course.

To disable this possibility, I had to edit Sniglets/ActivationKeys.pm to remove
the drop-down option for "Yes" there, and force it to always be "no".

I'd like to see a high-level configuration file option which accomplishes the
same function - disable the ability to set "Universal default: yes" on a key.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
3.4, though 4.1 appears to have the same behavior.

These have been open for years with no investigation or resolution.  Since then the code base has moved on significantly, such that many of these no longer would apply to the current spacewalk code.  I'm closing these requests in the hope they're no longer necessary, or if they are, they'll get discovered anew.
