[Spacewalk-list] 2.1 client setup, yum and add package

[William Kwan]

Hi all

I'm a Spacewalk newbie. I have a few questions regarding client setup on CentOS6.5

1. when I register a CentOS 6.5 client, it throws me errors after successfully registered. Those are pretty sure coming from yum repos.  The "client" is not connected to the internet directly.  This is expected?  

[root at centtest ~]# rhnreg_ks -v --serverUrl=http://spacewalk.test.com/XMLRPC --activationkey=1-0224935016493724c1f8dbee91502823
Could not retrieve mirrorlist http://mirrorlist.centos.org/?release=6&arch=x86_64&repo=os error was
14: PYCURL ERROR 6 - "Couldn't resolve host 'mirrorlist.centos.org'"
Could not get metalink https://mirrors.fedoraproject.org/metalink?repo=epel-6&arch=x86_64 error was
.... 
....


2. I added osad packages on the client and attempted to install a couple of packages selected from the base Centos 6.5 channel.  They ended up with 

Error while executing packages action: failure: repodata/37f91aa77dbd6a3de69cfbd7aeb7852ea37ac30c908d97097f9c49570875783b-filelists.sqlite.bz2 from base: [Errno 256] No more mirrors to try. [[6]]" (code -1)
Packages Scheduled:
ant-1.7.1-13.el6:0.x86_64

Is there anything I need to do or missing?  Do I need to specify the channels in "/etc/yum/pluginconf.d/rhnplugin.conf"


Thanks in advance 

Will
