Hello,

I guess there's a configuration file with rhn.system.ip_address macro
which should be deployed on the client.
Like
 ip_address={| rhn.system.ip_address(eth0) |}
but this macro does not take an argument (it returns primary IP address).
If you need an address of specific interface use
  ip_address={| rhn.system.net_interface.ip_address(eth0) |}

(No doubt it's a bug because wrong config file should not produce a traceback.)

Regards,
