ok, thanks for the info.. ive got mine set up like that now ( i think),
and when I try to do the kickstart from the spacewalk server, i still
get this  error

ERROR: reading package metadata: Cannot retrieve repository metadata
(repomd.xml) for repository: anaconda-base-201003220802.x86_64.
Please verify its path and try again.. Im sure my tree has the right
info in it..

[root at redhouse repodata]# pwd
/var/distro-trees/RHEL-5.5-x86_64/Server/repodata
[root at redhouse repodata]# ls
comps-rhel5-server-core.xml  filelists.xml.gz  other.xml.gz 
primary.xml.gz  repomd.xml  TRANS.TBL
[root at redhouse repodata]#



ive googled this and I see this issue, but I dont see any good fitting
answers.

regards,
Jason
