[Spacewalk-list] How can my CentOS 6.5 be up to date?

[Daryl Rose]

Waldirio,

Thank you for the information, but I'm still a bit confused on how to
configure the channel and repositories.

If I read your post correctly, I should create a CentOS 6.5 channel with a
CentOS 6.5
Base repository with a 6.5 update child repository?  Is that correct?

Thank you.

Daryl
