Brendan,
 
I follow the following advice:
 
https://fedorahosted.org/spacewalk/wiki/JabberAndOSAD
 
even though it seems to be using a sledgehammer to crack a nut.  Would
be nicer if OSAD were a little more reliable, or it's status was more
easily queriable (word?) from the client side.  Restarting it every 4
hours just seems a cop out to me - but it works.
 
If I could detect a fault on the client side, my Nagios checks or Puppet
runs could check for signs of life and restart things at the client
side.  I don't think this would happen every 4 hours!
 
Duncan

        Subject: Re: [Spacewalk-list] SYN Flooding with OSAD
        
        
        The problem with doing this is that I need to then remove
/etc/sysconfig/rhn/osad-auth.conf and bounce osad on each endpoint for
the systems show up as being online again.   Is there an easier way to
go about getting all the clients in an online status (per osad) once I
remove the jabberd database and bounce jabberd/osa-dispatcher?

        
        
        Thanks for the help btw!  Really appreciate it!

        Delete the database for jabberd then restart it. Next restart
osa-dispatcher you should be good from there.
        This is a well known bug that pops up from time to time.
