It seems upgrading to 1.7 clients fixed the issue.

Subject: [Spacewalk-list] unable to deploy configuration files

I'm having issues deploying configuration files no matter how trivial.

I setup a configuration channel to deploy a test file to /tmp/blah to isolate permissioning
And the python code is throwing an exception :

The client I'm testing is unlocked, and I issued a rhn-actions-control -enable-all
I have no issues with pushing new RPM's to the host so I'm not sure what could be wrong.
