yes, I did create (centos) repos, create channels, bind channel with repos - expect sync channel in webui. > Which url ftp://user:pass@myhost/... or http://centos.mirrors.com/...? using command line util the url was ftp://user:pass@myhost/... I've read that the url isn't stored anywhere by using spacewalk-repo-sync. Now, for convience (I don't have a cron job at this time) I did try to sync using webui since the repo url is stored (http://centos.mirrors.com/...) For my understanding it should now continue to sync with the given url shown/given from webui. > Is taskomatic running RepoSyncTask job? > # grep RepoSyncTask /var/log/rhn/rhn_taskomatic_daemon.log > > % Do I have always perform the sync on command line from now (since I sync > % it from there)?

Thanks for that hint :) You mean the files at /etc/rhn/default/* ? As I read at https://fedorahosted.org/spacewalk/wiki/TaskoMatic the settings from webui I should find at some config file but I didn't. For each channel the sync can have different times (following the webui). Where are this information stored?
