Re: MORE HELP NEEDED PLEASE :)

Did you create the database with cadmin before starting the current
server?

There has been *no* SQL support released; it is still under much
development, and is horridly broken at this point.  Your db_dir entry is
where current keeps all of it's shelf databases; if the server can't
open those, it won't start; they are created with:

                cadmin [-v] create ${CHANNEL_NAME}

You will also want to check to make sure the CERT files match on the
server and client, that your clocks are synchronized, and that your
client config files are pointing at the correct location.  You must also
run rhn_register against the Current server before using up2date - a
sysid obtained from RHN will not work with Current.

Can someone point me to the right area. Thanks in advance
