on the client run "/usr/sbin/rhn-profile-sync". If that fails, run a "yum whatprovides /usr/sbin/rhn-profile-sync" -or- "rpm -qf /usr/sbin/rhn-profile-sync". Install the corresponding package as it may have been originally packaged separate of rhn-client-tools.
in my case, the result is: rhn-client-tools-1.9.10-1.el6.noarch : Support programs and libraries for Red Hat Network or Spacewalk Repo : spacewalk-client Matched from: Filename : /usr/sbin/rhn-profile-sync a quick google showed that someone originally made the client tools and published to fedoraproject for rhel4/5. http://en.it-usenet.org/thread/19251/15/ On Thu, Jun 26, 2014 at 4:43 PM, Boyd, Robert <[email protected]> wrote: > I tried hardware refresh followed by rhn_check on the client.
