Description of problem:

When using a wildcard certificate purchased from a CA, osad and osa-dispatcher fail to verify the certificate and instead give a "Mismatch: peer name: error

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
spacewalk 1.3 both client and server packages
The problem exists in /usr/share/rhn/osad/jabber_lib.py

How reproducible:

Install a wildcard certificate into spacewalk.  I used the instructions here for installing the certificate:

http://unfuckablelinux.com/2008/07/02/spacewalk-and-avoiding-self-signed-certificates/

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install wildcard cert
2. Start osa-dispatcher
3.
  
Actual results:
Starting osa-dispatcher: /usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/jabber/jabber.py:68: DeprecationWarning: the sha module is deprecated; use the hashlib module instead
  import sha, time
RHN 10088 2011/03/12 15:01:59 -05:00: ('Traceback caught:',)
RHN 10088 2011/03/12 15:01:59 -05:00: ('Traceback (most recent call last):\n  File "/usr/share/rhn/osad/jabber_lib.py", line 611, in connect\n    self.verify_peer(ssl)\n  File "/usr/share/rhn/osad/jabber_lib.py", line 692, in verify_peer\n (self._host, common_name))\nSSLVerifyError: Mismatch: peer name: spacesl6.oreillyschool.com; common name: *.oreillyschool.com.\n',) 

Expected results:
osa-dispatcher should start without errors

Additional info:
The check in jabber_lib.py should be fixed to match the commom name against wildcards.
