Your satellite certificate has expired

I woke up this morning with an email and a prompt on the web login for our spacewalk server indicating that a certificate had expired. I checked the SSL certificate and it looked fine, so after some research, I realized the issue was related to a pgp certificate used for licensing features and activation of spacewalk/satellite. I was able to overcome the issue using this blog post http://kernelmanic.com/?p=1

Thanks for posting Lyas. Do note LQ also provides you with a free web log space. You could use that for informative posts that aren't technical questions...
