Ok, I fixed the error (had been trying to correct a cert error, which I am now back to)
Here's the original error, still cannot register clients: [r...@stewie ~]# rhnreg_ks --serverUrl=https://10.29.126.250/XMLRPC --username=spacewalkadmin --password=spacewalk --activationkey=rhel-channel-key --force An error has occurred: The certificate is expired. Please ensure you have the correct certificate and your system time is correct. See /var/log/up2date for more information Here is the date info on the spacewalk.crt : Validity Not Before: Apr 15 06:23:55 2009 GMT Not After : Apr 15 06:23:57 2036 GMT Any thoughts?

The message was: > Connection refused Are you sure that the client can reach the server it's attempting to communicate with, either strictly as a network configuration or due to a firewall on the server? I know it sounds basic, but sometimes the simplest issues are overlooked. :) -- Jason Dobies RHN Satellite / Spacewalk RHCE# 805008743336126 Freenode: jdob @ #spacewalk #spacewalk-devel _______________________________________________ Spacewalk-list mailing list Spacewalk-list@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/spacewalk-list _______________________________________________ Spacewalk-list mailing list Spacewalk-list@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/spacewalk-list
