Did some further troubleshooting, and it appears to be an authentication issue. I even had the guy who set the server up log in with his admin account (the one he used during setup) and according to the /var/log/tomcat5/catalina.out file, we are having authentication issues with it:

I don't really know much about Tomcat, so where else could I look to try and solve this?

I was attempting to create a Kickstart profile, when I ran into an issue. I was able to enter in the information, but when I clicked on continue, I got the following: The server experienced a problem which prevented your request from being filled out. It may not be possible to execute this action at this time. I googled this and ran across something similar at http://osdir.com/ml/spacewalk-list/2011-11/msg00034.html, however SELinux is in Permissive mode on this server (I inherited this system). I thought I would check the permissions on the files in /var/lib/rhn/kickstarts/wizard/ and everything is in 644 mode, and owned (both user and group) by either root or tomcat. The directory permission is set to 775, so that seems fine as well. Any thoughts on where I can go to troubleshoot further? Thanks. -Kenny
