I think the real culprit was my neglect. As the client was not able to ping the spacewalk server I had replaced the hostname by IP address in the /etc/sysconfig/rhn/up2date and in the spacewalk-server in /etc/cobbler/settings , 'but' the Certificates had the hostname in them, so that was the real problem, now fixed the DNS in the client reverted back all settings to hostname, everything works as charm. PS: failing of osad in the client gave me the hint what was wrong in the client.
