[Spacewalk-list] How to set Spacewalk server as yum server

[fnwsa at yahoo.com]

Thanks Paul for the clarification.

See the following commands and outputs please. There is no .repo file available (all enabled=0), then where the 'yum list' come from? I am confused:

# yum clean all && yum clean metadata && yum clean dbcache
Loaded plugins: rhnplugin, security
Cleaning up Everything
Loaded plugins: rhnplugin, security
0 metadata files removed
0 sqlite files removed
0 metadata files removed
Loaded plugins: rhnplugin, security
0 sqlite files removed

# grep enabled=1 /etc/yum.conf
#
# grep enabled=1 /etc/yum.repos.d/*
#

# yum list | more
Loaded plugins: rhnplugin, security
