My clients auto-register when kickstarting, you might be missing the spacewalk

Also, one problem i was having originally was that new systems would not have
the correct time on them, so i have a script in my kickstart to use rdate to
update them.
look in the root's home directory for the installation log files, post them
here ... they might provide some clues.

well, ive tried using the setup at
https://fedorahosted.org/spacewalk/wiki/HowToKickstartCobbler (please
correct me if this is not the right guide to follow)
the doc says to set up the "tools" distro as a child of my mail
rhel-server directory, and someone else stated that it should be this
way.. i.e.
rhel-server-5.5
|
|----VT
|----Cluster Server
|----Cluster Virtualization
|---- rhel-tools <-this has the 4 packages in it. (pyOpenSSL
rhnlib libxml2-python # spacewalk-koan)
BUT, when I goto the step that says
Select "Systems|Kickstart|Distributions" and select "+ create new
distribution"
"Base channel" should be "Fedora 9 with Tools" (or rhel-tools
in my case)
I cannot select this because its not a base channel.. its a child channel..
can someone please clear up how this is supposed to work?

ok thanks, I was thinking thats what I had to do, but I was was hoping there
would be something more elegant and
built-in.

This may not be the spacewalk way, but in my kickstart files I have the clients
register via:
/usr/sbin/rhnreg_ks --serverUrl=http://spacewalk.some.domain/XMLRPC \
--activationkey=1-7777xxxxxxxxx
Where the activation key is the appropriate one for whichever channel the
client needs to join.
I don't use Spacewalk to handle the actual kickstarting, however.

Subject: [Spacewalk-list] systems not registered by default?
I noticed that my clients after kickstarting are not
registered with the spacewalk server by default, is there a way to make
kickstarted systems register with the
spacewalk server by default so that after they're kickstarted, I can just do a "yum
install screen" or whatever?

Got your repos with the custom RPMs enabled in both the kickstart
(under operating system) and the activation key (under child
channels)?
well, under kickstart details->operating system, i have
child channels: which lists my 2 custom channels/repos and they have a
checkbox next to them.
further below, I see
Repositories:
and i see the following : Cluster, ClusterStorage, Workstation, VT
under the activation-keys, i click on my activation key, and click
"child channels",
I see my 2 repos under there..
regards,
