From RT#102684, raised by Peter Gervase on 22 Feb, 2011: <blockquote> http://docs.redhat.com/docs/en-US/Red_Hat_Network_Satellite/5.4/html/Proxy_Installation_Guide/s1-installation-install-config.html [Open URL] says: 1. Register the newly-installed Red Hat Enterprise Linux system with Red Hat Network (either the central RHN Servers or your RHN Satellite Server) using the organizational account containing the RHN Proxy Server entitlement with the command: |rhn_register|. 2. To perform an installation, type the following command: configure-proxy.sh You're missing steps 2 and 3: 1) register the client to rhn or the satellite 2) subscribe the client to the rhn tools channel 3) # yum install spacewalk-proxy-installer 4) # configure-proxy.sh Without subscribing to the rhn tools channel and installing spacewalk-proxy-installer, you won't have the /usr/sbin/configure-proxy.sh file. Thanks Pete </blockquote>
