[Spacewalk-list] Troubles Registering Clients through Proxy Server

[Glennie, Jonathan - 0443 - MITLL]

Never mind, I found the culprit, an obscure firewall rule that I had forgot about.

Subject: Troubles Registering Clients through Proxy Server

Hi All-

I'm having some issues registering clients through an http proxy server.  I have successfully registered clients that are on the same LAN as my spacewalk server, however when I try to register a client that needs to travel through an http proxy server, the rhnreg_ks command just hangs. It never times out or gives me an error, I just have to ctrl-c it.  I've tried setting http_proxy and using the -proxy option in the command itself, but no dice.  Any ideas?  Here's what my registration command looks like:

rhnreg_ks --proxy=proxyserver:8080 --serverUrl=http://server.com/XMLRPC --activationkey=1-default


If I check /var/log/update, it doesn't give me any info besides the fact that the connection was aborted by user.

-Jon
