Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:
Very, every time. 

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Edit seeds file:
vi /usr/share/katello/db/seeds.rb

Change admin to 'fooadmin' and password to 'baradmin' 

2. Edit pulp.conf file
vi /etc/pulp/pulp.conf
Change lines to match:
default_login: fooadmin
default_password: baradmin
3. Cos test system, reset all DBs!
/usr/share/katello/script/katello-reset-dbs

At end, try katello ping as this new user and note pulp oauth fails. 

Likely due to hard coded admin within :
  /usr/share/katello/app/controllers/api/ping_controller.rb
(maybe other places as well)


Actual results:
Fails...

Expected results:
Works...

Additional info:
I can confirm pulp oauth works when using - oauth-test.rb script from katello.git repo. 

Also note:
katello -uadmin -padmin ping
will give same message (it is authenticated)
[root@rhnscripts1-webdev ~]# katello -uadmin -padmin ping
