1.4.10 Client Registration Issues

During installation, Spacewalk generates a CA certificate. This certificate is used in the client registration process. If a Spacewalk server does not have a valid fully-qualified domain name (FQDN), Spacewalk does not generate a valid CA certificate. Spacewalk does not consider .local and .localdomain to be valid domain names.
