[Spacewalk-list] osad/jabber - Invalid password errors

[Robert Paschedag]

Hi Daryl,

the password fire jabber is stored in /etc/sysconfig/rhn/osad.auth, if I remember right.

The other thing is not enough permissions to delete the PID file.

Are you running osad as a non-root user?

Regards
Robert
