[Spacewalk-list] Bare Metal Provision Through Proxy

[Wojtak, Greg (Superfly)]

It does work directly from the spacewalk server.

I probably should have been more clear in my previous email about what I'm
perceiving the problem to be.

The repo name in the URL is having the 'spacewalk' replaced as well.  In
this case, the repo is called spacewalk-client.  I'm guessing that since
my spacewalk server is simply called 'spacewalk', there's some sort of
regex going on that replaces all occurrences of 'spacewalk' with my proxy
name instead of just the domain portion of the URL.  So 'spacewalk-client'
is becoming 'proxy.fqdn.tld-client' within the URL string.

I apologize if I'm restating what I already told you, but I wanted to make
sure I was accurately reporting what I was seeing.  My last email was a
bit ambiguous unless you were really paying close attention to the URL. :)
