[Spacewalk-list] some questions

[Michiel van Es]

Hi John,

You mean you manage the channels and servers with the spacewalk admin?
That is true, but I want that by default CentOS 5 clients can access al 
the normal CentOS 5 repo's without having to grant them to the clients 
in the spacewalk interface.

I did the reposync and an rhnpush to my channels and when I want to use 
yum update on the CentOS 5 client  I get the following error:

Error: Cannot retrieve repository metadata (repomd.xml) for repository: 
centos5. Please verify its path and try again

Do I have to create the repomd.xml file for the CentOS 5 channel?

Michiel
