Description Jay Dobies 2011-01-13 19:41:46 UTC 
Users of pulp won't necessarily know what gofer is, so requiring them to start the goferd service isn't intuitive. We should somehow mask that with a pulp-client script (either call it or just symlink it) so that its branded as a pulp utility.
Comment 1 Jeff Ortel 2011-02-08 21:55:05 UTC 
Agreed.

Updated pulp.spec (pulp-client) to symlink:
  pulp-agent --> goferd
in /etc/rc.d/init.d

Works in conjunction with the fix for bug 669484.  This should be intuitive for pulp users.  To point the client at a remote pulp server, the user does:

1) vi /etc/pulp/client.conf
2) service pulp-agent restart

Done!

I'll update the UG at the next community release.
