Description Xixi 2010-06-21 23:04:55 UTC 
Description of problem:
In Satellite's webUI "Referance Guide", Chapter 11. Cobbler (rhn/help/reference/en-US/ch-cobbler.jsp#s2-cobbler-reqs-security), the IPTable configuration command has an incorrect entry:

/sbin/iptables -A INPUT -m state --state NEW -m tcp -p udp --dport 25150 -j ACCEPT
should be:
/sbin/iptables -A INPUT -m state --state NEW -m udp -p udp --dport 25150 -j ACCEPT

(-m options has to be "udp" and not "tcp".)

The redhat.com documentation section also has the same error - 
http://www.redhat.com/docs/en-US/Red_Hat_Network_Satellite/5.3.0/Reference_Guide/html/ch-cobbler.html#s2-cobbler-reqs-security

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Red Hat Network (RHN) Satellite 5.3.0

How reproducible:
Always.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. See above

Actual results:
See above.

Expected results:
See above.
The docs should show "/sbin/iptables -A INPUT -m state --state NEW -m udp -p udp --dport 25150 -j ACCEPT" within Satellite webUI and redhat.com/docs section.
