[Spacewalk-list] Clients Not Checking In With Spacewalk Server

[Jonathan Hoser]

  'Morning!

This sound a lot what I asked back on 10/18/2010 "Managing Fedora 13 
systems" -
where my boxes don't show updates, while the CentOS ones do.

Back then I was pointed to a bug in the routines that actually 
'overlooked' the correct results:

I quote:

I think you hithttps://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=585965.


quote end.

I haven't gotten around to try to patch my SW installation/database, but 
have it on my list.

Best
-Jonathan

There was one, but it was due to a hung job in the TaskQueue, my queue is empty.  I do have OSA/OSA-dispatcher running fine, and rhnsd on the clients is set to the default polling interval. I'm also seeing logs of my clients running up2date to login to the SW server in /var/log/up2date.
