[Spacewalk-list] Trigger script on spacewalk on activation

[Will D]

I had a similar requirement recently and through a little inventiveness, and some python/cgi scripting we basically create a http cgi call from the newly built system to the satellite during build time, that passed a few variables, and executed api calls to move the server to appropriate groups, configure custom variables and perform other satellite functions automatically.

Note, you can combine activation keys so in this case was so easy to do what you need.
