[Spacewalk-list] Configuration File Import Problem

[Trevor T Kates]

Just to clarify, I am receiving this error when using the Spacewalk 0.8 web interface for the server. Under Systems -> <target system> -> Configuration -> Add Files -> Import Files -> typing /etc/X11/xorg.conf into the text field and scheduling the import, I receive the fatal Python error mentioned earlier. My client systems have SELinux disabled. I posted the requested command outputs in an earlier reply as well.

Thank you.

It is error in client, which try to send None value over XMLRPC, which 
is not allowed. Weird.
It seem to happend during upload of /etc/X11/xorg.conf
Can you please send output of:
  stat /etc/X11/xorg.conf
  ls -Z /etc/X11/xorg.conf
Thx
