[Spacewalk-list] Just installed... a little bit confused.

[Mauro Gatti]

Mmmmm there is something strange.
On spacewalk machine and on the client I'm trying to register I disabled the firewall.
Looking at tcpdump output on the client machine I can't see any packet going out to spacewalk server.
It looks like rhnreg_ks doesn't do anything....

If you get a timeout error it trying to register your rhel  box on spw sounds like a client can't get to spw on port 443
