This is another topic that reoccurs periodically because the web pages aren't clear about it, and people prefer asking questions on mailing-lists or message boards instead of calling Red Hat Sales. First of all, you mix Red Hat Network (RHN) and Red Hat Enterprise Network (RHEN). Red Hat Linux, Fedora Core and Red Hat Professional Workstation receive updates from RHN, Red Hat Enterprise Linux *includes* access to RHEN for one year. You don't need to purchase an extra account. After one year, you cannot simply purchase a RHN account because that doesn't give you access to RHEN. Btw, AS/ES/WS are licenced per installed machine (see service level agreement). --
