[Spacewalk-list] System-ID not found errors

[Boyd, Robert]

Suddenly this afternoon I started getting these error messages on several spacewalk clients:

There was an error communicating with RHN.
RHN Satellite or RHN Classic support will be disabled.
Error communicating with server. The message was:

Error Message:
    Please run rhn_register as root on this client
Error Class Code: 9
Error Class Info: Invalid System Credentials.

When I look on the spacewalk server I see the following types of errors in  /var/log/rhn/rhn_server_xmlrpc.log:

2013/04/08 17:48:16 -04:00 15214 172.23.2.157: xmlrpc/up2date.listChannels(1000010241,)

These are all clients that have been successfully connecting to spacewalk for some time.   No changes have been made to the spacewalk configuration other than adding new clients.   Today I found a duplicate name and deleted the older of the duplicates.

I did have 5 spacewalk Proxy Servers registered.   It appears that somehow all of my spacewalk proxy servers have been un-registered from the master.   How do I discover when and by whom these might have become unregistered?
