Thanks guys.

Appreciate the info.


I think this issue has to do with the clients being across multiple routers and 
possible network blips.

I have no issues with clients on the same subnet.

I don't know if it's a know bug, but I do know that this behavior was seen in 
both RHN4.x and RHN5.x .

There are 2 ways you can deal with this:

 - cron job that restarts the osad daemon at X interval.
 - cron job that checks if the osad daemon is connected to it's server and 
restarts it when not....

I don't have the script for the second solution, but I remember it to be quiet 
easy (40 lines or so). One thing to know is that you need to check if the osad 
daemon is enabled or not, otherwise you might end up in starting a lot of osad 
daemons where you don't want them.

I saw this behavior in Satellite v5.1 at a previous client site...  My
workaround was restarting osad on the clients daily.
