I built the server and registered the server with RHN. I installed spacewalk and was ready to start configuring distributions. Since I want to manage RHEL5 and RHEL6 distros as well as CentOS 5/6 I installed mrepo 0.8.7, then updated to 0.8.8 and tried to use the gensystemid tool to register for a channel on RHN. I am getting some errors that I never experienced on my previous build on RHEL5.8.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Is there anyone on the list who has a working system built on the same versions?
