[Spacewalk-list] OSAD not picking up updates

[Matt Moldvan]

I'm with Maxime... I spent months trying to get OSAD to work properly, and
we recently had a major issue with some network equipment that lead to many
OSAD clients going offline.  Personally I'm just about done with it and
ready to implement a cron job to do rhn_check every 5 minutes...
