Hmm - well if you're using the rhnplugin then yum's communication being proxied has nothing to do with it.

From that the latest yum (from 5.5 or upstream) would set a proxy for
http, https and ftp of:
http://DOMAIN%5Cbar:foo@server:3128/?
...does that look fine? Do you know what error you are getting?

Thanks for the reply. I am using yum-3.2.22-26.el5. I gave what you
suggested a try. Here's what my new config says:
proxy=http://DOMAIN%5Cfoo:bar@server:3128
[root@server network-scripts]# yum check-update
Loaded plugins: rhnplugin, security
There was an error communicating with RHN.
RHN support will be disabled.
Error communicating with server. The message was:
Connection refused
I double checked my firewall logs and it is completely ignoring the proxy
configuration because it is going directly to the Internet to get to RHN:
Jun 24 23:30:44 10.98.1.1 %ASA-4-106023: Deny tcp src
VLAN197:10.197.1.5/46109 dst outside:209.132.183.44/443 by access-group
"VLAN197-in" [0x0, 0x0]
It's hitting RHN directly, not via proxy.
what do you see in your rhn-plugin configuration?
specifically
/etc/sysconfig/rhn/up2date
-sv

Default configuration which is proxy disabled and no configuration for it. Expected but, again, none of my other machines have this file configured. Only main yum.conf.
I went ahead and configured this file and it's now working. How are all of my other servers working fine with just the global yum.conf proxy configuration? Confused.
