Jan, I don't comprehend what you are suggesting.
The instructions clearly require the installation of the spacewalk client prior to completing the registration. The clients I am working with are inside a firewall so they do not have access to the Internet directly. This means they must be provided with access to the client software by having a repository accessible inside the firewall. Is there some way to register a client before installing the spacewalk-client packages?
