[Spacewalk-list] Newbie question: SpaceWalk RHEL4/5 and RHN

[Kobus Bensch]

IMHO  the postgre support is very limited with Spacewalk and 
non-existent with Satellite. I have opted for the Oracle db backend and 
found it to be a lot more stable. Also from experience, i hard ever had 
to do anything with the db once it is all up and running.

Besides, how many hosts do you want to manage?
