Thanks for the answer:
1) I checked the details of the base channel, the repo cache is sync'ed:
Last Modified: 2011-09-12 11:11:24 CEST
Last Repo Build: 2011-09-12 11:11:24 CEST
Repo Cache Status: Completed
2) For information, I used rhnpush and not reposync to push the rpms in the
base channel.
3) I don't have any process related to a repo sync running on my server.
I don't know what's wrong....
