Waldrino:
Thanks for your reply - I did investigate whether this was recommended
prior to doing it, according to a post from someone with apparently good
credentials (Red Hat Satellite engineer) its OK to do this.
https://www.redhat.com/archives/spacewalk-list/2011-October/msg00010.html
However this was a while ago and things may have changed. If this is not
what most people are donig then I'll reconsider.
Matthew:
I hadn't, I have now but sadly it didn';t help - same error in log. To
reply to your question, I have registered the spacewalk "master" server
directly to itself.
Regards,
Matt
