Never mind, I found the problem.  I ran a diff on the new config vs a working up2date config file and found a typo I managed to introduce.

Subject: registering with self signed certificate?

Hi,

I'm trying to register my RHEL 6 box on the U's satellite server, but not having any luck.   I've got my activation key from 2008 and I followed the instructions at https://rhnsat.uiowa.edu/rhn/help/client-config/en-US/sect-Client_Configuration_Guide-Configuring_the_Client_Applications-Registering_with_Activation_Keys.jsp.

rpm -Uvh http://rhnsat.uiowa.edu/pub/rhn-org-trusted-ssl-cert-1.0-1.noarch.rpm
rhnreg_ks --activationkey XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX --serverUrl https://rhnsat.uiowa.edu/XMLRPC

The error I get is:
An error has occurred:
The SSL certificate failed verification.
See /var/log/up2date for more information

The log file says:
[Mon Jun 17 16:47:35 2013] up2date
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/sbin/rhnreg_ks", line 219, in <module>
    cli.run()
  File "/usr/share/rhn/up2date_client/rhncli.py", line 84, in run
    sys.exit(self.main() or 0)
  File "/usr/sbin/rhnreg_ks", line 89, in main
    rhnreg.getCaps()
  File "/usr/share/rhn/up2date_client/rhnreg.py", line 249, in getCaps
    s.capabilities.validate()
  File "/usr/share/rhn/up2date_client/rhnserver.py", line 160, in __get_capabilities

Is it because I have a self-signed certificate that I'm getting the SSL error?  I tried pointing the gui to the cert I generated using the temporary name for the box and to just the localhost cert.  Both failed.

I don't have an "official" cert for this box yet because it is a replacement for an existing box and its name will change.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Bob
