Well, I *finally* got it going. Here's an odd thing: I was starting the
one-line script and piping stdout and stderr into a file, then tail -f the
file. All I saw was the "connecting". Finally, I tried running it from the
command line, and *now* it sat there for a few minutes, *then* complained that
the channel didn't exist, or that I didn't have the right to manage it.
So, as I'd been thinking about how I should set up the channels since I created
it, I deleted it, recreated it, then created subchannels under the
CentOS5-x86_64, one each for base, updates, addons and extras. I also spelled,
and had the case the same for both channel name and channel label. It appears
to me - correct me if I'm wrong - that rhnpush is using the name rather than
the label. Then I also added in the password on the command line (don't like
that, I'd like it to prompt me, so it doesn't go in history), and it's working.
It *seems* as though my real problems were with the channel. That being said, I
don't understand why it sits there for so long, before doing anything, and why
it didn't write the error message to the file.
