[Spacewalk-list] rhn_check

[Kennedy, Ryan]

Basic question... with what frequency does a spacewalk client run the rhn_check command?  Or is it checking for updates/file-pushes/etc. via some other means?

Along those same lines... If you modify a centrally managed file on a client will Spacewalk ever re-push that file automatically to sync it with the centrally managed version?  Does it support any revision control on the client side?  What I am trying to understand is how Spacewalk keeps track of any local changes to a centrally managed file and how it handles those changes.  That way for instance, the local /etc/ntp.conf file can't be altered from the centrally managed version, etc.

Thanks.
