I added in a new system two day's ago.  I had some issues getting it to registered.  After some troubleshooting, I discovered that selinux was preventing this system from registering.  Its a RHEL 6.6 system.



I disabled selinux, and was able to register, and all appeared to be good.  Now, I see that the system hasn't checked in since it was registered.  rhnsd and osad are both running, and I can see that it's connected to port 5222 on the SW server.



>From time-to-time, I've had machines stop checking in, and normally I just spin osad and all is good.   On this machine I stopped osad, removed the osad-auth.conf file, restarted osad, but still not checking in.  I had another machine do something similar a while back.  Discovered that there was a hung rhnsd process which was causing it from checking in.  Once I killed that, all was good.  However, I don't see anything similar with this machine.  I spun rhnsd, but still not checking in.



Nothing in any of the logs that I can see.  All looks good.   I've run out of idea's.  Anyone else know what might be keeping this machine from checking in?



Thank you



Daryl
