Quick about Current

Hi guys,

  You guys are quick.  I was working on installing 0.9.4 this morning...
and tonight I found that 0.9.5-1 is out.  

  I think I have done everything in the documentation, and I am having a
slight problem.  I have gotten to the point where I can run rhn_register
and it registers through the current server and not through RedHat.  So, I
tried to get the up2date list...

  [root@client rhn]# up2date -l
  Retrieving list of all available packages...
  There was a fatal error communicating with the server.  The message was:
  400: "Error while makeing xmlrpc call" while attempting to get
  $RHN/redhat-i386-7.2/listPackages/20020214014704

  And up2date --showall gives more involved traceback. 

  Currently, I have 0.9.5 installed, but this morning, I was getting the 
same error with 0.9.4.  

  Ok, now for the info about the install.  Both times, I grabbed the
src.rpm's.  I installed 'em, and then went to the spec file and did rpm
-bb specfile, and install the rpm that it made.  I editted
/etc/current.conf with the relevant parts being....


[current]
valid_channels = redhat-i386-7.2
#log_file = ./current.log
#pid_file = ./current.pid
log_level = 2
http_port = 8080
https_port = 8081
key_file = ./current.pem

[redhat72]
label = redhat-i386-7.2
name = Redhat 7.2
parent_channel =
arch = i386
os_release = 7.2
description = Redhat 7.2
rpm_dirs = /mnt/current/7.2/RedHat/RPMS
xrpm_dirs =
src_dirs = /mnt/src
db_dir = /etc/current/db_current

Ah... ran cadmin -v create redhat-i386-7.2.  Created the
create_certificate script, and distributed the certificate.  Started up
the server, and then rhn_register'ed on the clients... Also, changed the
up2date and rhn_register conf files on the clients.  

Thanks in advance,

James
