[Spacewalk-list] OSAD Problem with client/proxy

[Wojtak, Greg]

It looks like I am getting a similar problem (now that I know what to look for in the logs):

grep dns /var/log/messages
Sep 29 15:05:39 spacewalk jabberd/s2s[20819]: dns lookup for spacewalk-proxy failed

I modified my resolv.conf's search option to include the domain that spacewalk-proxy is in and am able to resolve the shortname from command line with host or nslookup.  I am still getting this error.

I noticed in the jabberd documentation that there is a reference to /usr/bin/resolver and /etc/jabberd/resolver.xml.  I don't have either of these files, nor does a yum provides /usr/bin/resolver return anything.  Is this supposed to be there?  I have the following line in my s2s.xml:

<resolver>resolver</resolver>

Should that be changed to something else?

Thanks!

Greg

Hello List/Mirek,

Determined the solution to the issue I was having with that proxy server. It turns out it was a DNS issue. Updated DNS and everything is working as it should. Thank you for your help.

I am able to get to the ports on the proxy from the client. I performed a tcpdump and the communication seems to be going just fine. No errors in /var/log/messages where the jabber logs are being sent. It appears to be working as it should but in the web ui it doesn't show online and the client will not pick up instant actions. I also performed an rhn_check -vv and no errors were displayed. Everything looks normal by what I can see but still have this issue.

Osad is not working. Can you telnet to jabberd port from that proxy. Is
that anything related in jabberd and osa/osad logs?
