ok awesome.. I think thatll help, but how do I find out under which secret hex soup my rpms are under?

I looked under packages and see
File System Path: redhat/1/d68/libxml2-python/2.6.26-2.1.2.8/x86_64/d680cc6d783978c4f2cf75da6897c2e6/libxml2-python-2.6.26-2.1.2.8.x86_64.rpm
(for instance), but cant seem to pull it up via
lynx http://127.0.0.1/download/package/d680cc6d783978c4f2cf75da6897c2e6/libxml2-python-2.6.26-2.1.2.8.x86_64.rpm

Yes, clients can access RPMs before activation/registration but not
trivially.  Here's a snippet from the post script from a kickstart:
---
mkdir -p /tmp/rhn_rpms/optional
cd /tmp/rhn_rpms/optional
wget -P /tmp/rhn_rpms/optional
http://127.0.0.1/download/package/914a8ce4e6f7676172d0a4a7f676c27ec9a2a671/0/1/574/libxml2-python-2.6.26-2.1.2.8.x86_64.rpm http://127.0.0.1/download/package/820777256524475e88b262c612dbac16af14ccc4/0/1/9831/rhnlib-2.5.26-1.el5.noarch.rpm http://127.0.0.1/download/package/3fd11ca62e5c2445fb825be90c6d180b6ff7a258/0/1/1433/pyOpenSSL-0.6-1.p24.7.2.2.x86_64.rpm
rpm -Uvh --replacepkgs --replacefiles
/tmp/rhn_rpms/optional/pyOpenSSL* /tmp/rhn_rpms/optional/rhnlib*
/tmp/rhn_rpms/optional/libxml2-python*
---

Notice the 'wget' followed by the 'rpm'.

Can a client actually access the RPMs before being activated? I would have thought the tools would need to come from another non-spacewalk repo, installed and then activated.

Subject: Re: [Spacewalk-list] systems not registered by default?

anyone? i also noticed in my logs, that the "tools rpms" arent getting found for some reason.. im sure this is the main cause of the system not
registering.
but whats the right way to set this up?

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

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?


Jason
