[tools] mrepo up2date registration problem...

[Pienaar, Derek]

Hi,

 

I have a centos 4.3 server that I am configuring as an mrepo server for
the rest of

my centos and rhel servers. At first I had trouble with the standard
up2date package/tool that

came with the stock centos 4.3 installation.

 

I found more info online: I removed the "centos" up2date package, and
install an up2date 

Package from an rhel distribution. (Same version.)

 

I have also configured the proxy settings in up2date, but without luck.
My problem is that

when I run gensystemid as follows:

 

gensystemid -u rhnuser -p rhnpassword -r 4ES -a i386
/var/www/mrepo/rh4es-i386

 

I get the following error:

 

Traceback (most recent call last):

    main()

  File "/usr/bin/gensystemid", line 210, in main

What is causing this? I have searched for info, but to no avail.

 

Any help is appreciated,

 

DP.
