[Spacewalk-list] Server rename

[Miller, Chris]

I just discovered the script in spacewalk-utils package that would've done all of this for me.  Is it possible to still run this and fix anything I might've not corrected on my own?

In the middle of working on it, it was decided to move the server (it's a virtual machine) to another location which required a server name change.  This created quite a headache with all of the configuration files, certificates and other misc stuff in Spacewalk already being setup for the first name.  I think I cleaned up all of the references to the old name, but still have one lingering issue that I can't seem to fix.
