[Spacewalk-list] Invalid function call attempted (code 6)

[Paul Greene]

I checked into a few systems that failed and looked for logs at the time
the failure supposedly happened, and it just had these 3 lines at that
specific time:

up2date updateLoginfo() login info
up2date logging into up2date server
up2date successfully retrieved authentication token from up2date server
