I changed my host to "localhost-foo", which does not resolve to an actual host. But I am still able to run pulp-admin commands. I haven't tested further, but I wonder if this means we are unable to run Pulp CLIs from another machine besides localhost. $ cat /etc/pulp/client.conf # The pulp server configuration # host : The pulp server # port : The port providing the RESTful API. # scheme : The protocol. # interval : The agent update interval [server] host = localhost-foo port = 443 scheme = https path = /pulp/api interval = 240 [snip] $ sudo pulp-admin repo list +------------------------------------------+ List of Available Repositories +------------------------------------------+ Id pulp-f14-64 Name pulp-f14-64 FeedURL http://repos.fedorapeople.org/repos/pulp/pulp/fedora-14/x86_64 FeedType yum Arch noarch Sync Schedule None Packages 10 Files 0 Distributions None Publish True Clones [] Groups None Id foo-1 Name foo-1 FeedURL None FeedType None Arch i386 Sync Schedule None Packages 0 Files 0 Distributions None Publish True Clones [] Groups None
Argh, ignore this. I had host set in ~/.pulp/client.conf and totally forgot it was there.
