Hi guys,

I have RHEL 5.1 running  Systemimager 4.0.2   I have installed all the packages 
required and made all dependencies.  I have started both the rsync daemon and 
the bittorrent daemon and confirmed that they are running.   I have uploaded an 
image to the IS.  I then created a cd to install the image to my client. 

However, when I pop the disc into the client machine, it starts running but 
stops right where I should be seeing the downloading percentage for the zipped 
boel binary file.  It seems like it's not able to communicate with the server 
over bittorrent yet.

The server firewall has been shut off and so has SELinux, I verified that both 
the tracker and the seeder were running again.   I tried this using rsync 
instead of the bt client and everything went off without a hitch.

What I can tell you is that the standard bittorrent ports (6881-6999) are being 
blocked at the routers by our network admin and because of this I set the 
tracker in the config to use port 12345. 
I'm also not even sure if the client is even trying to contact the server over 
bittorrent as I sniffed the packets from the client and didn't see anything to 
the server after the rsync connection.

 Also I know that rsync is still working with the bittorrent install disc 
because I can see the proper files in /torrents on the ramdisk.  It just 
doesn't seem to be downloading them.

Is there something I need to append when running si_mkautoinstallcd that I'm 
not setting to compensate for the change in tracker port?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Derek
