Hi Robert, rhn-channel --list gives me the following: trusty trusty-backports trusty-security trusty-updates Those are the channels that are showing on the spacewalk console as well. rhn_check -v doesn't actually return anything on the client.

Hi Lazaro, did you install the necessary spacewalk client packages and registered the client to the server with "rhnreg_ks"? If you did the, the spacewalk plugin for apt manages the repos your client is subscribed to on the server and an "apt-get update" is all you need. No need to "recreate" the package lists. What does "rhn-channel" and "rhn_check" tell on the client?
