Description Eric Sammons 2011-12-14 13:29:00 UTC 
Description of problem:
Today once katello-configure runs the server is set up and ready to go; however, there are still a number of steps that must be followed to set up the client (consumer).

On the client:
1. scp $CANDLEPINSERVER:/etc/candlepin/ca/candlepin-ca.crt /etc/rhsm/ca/.
2. cp candlepin-ca.crt candlepin-local.pem
3. Edit /etc/rhsm/rhsm.conf or run subscription-manager config .....

These client steps could be reduced to nothing more than a wget; yum localinstall or rpm -Uhv http://[candlepinserver]/candlepin-consumer.rpm _IF_ katello-configure generated a rpm containing the following files:

- Minimum default rhsm.conf that would leverage SAM+Thumbslug or katello.
- candlepin-ca.crt
- candlepin-local.pem

Yes this is the plan. We will follow the Spacewalk approach here.
