[Spacewalk-list] Issues creating a Kickstart Disribution

[Alyson Calhoun]

Hi,

No, I won't yell :)

Yes I do.  I actually just fixed the issue.  I reinstalled Spacewalk - and
made sure my DNS entry was responding.

Now I'm stuck on actually kickstarting a system (more DNS issues)

Will work on this tomorrow.

Thanks for your response though.
