puppet + dashboard

I have a spacewalk lab up and running and would like to have puppet installed, because spacewalk doesn't suit all my needs.
Can i use epel or is it better to use the puppetlabs yum repo, which has more up 2 date packages and dashboard rpm available?

Can i use postgresql for dashboard?

Thanks in advance.

No idea, but RPMforge has later versions than EPEL, but not as new as [url=http://yum.puppetlabs.com/el/6/]puppetlabs[/url], so perhaps throw them into your comparison. Your [url=http://puppetlabs.com/puppet/related-projects/dashboard/]dashboard[/url] question seems best directed at [url=http://puppetlabs.com/community/overview/]puppetlabs community[/url].

I'd recommend Foreman over the puppet-dashboard.

The setup is a bit more combersome, but more powerful. I'd use puppetlabs, foreman and rpmforge repos.

That's my current setup.
