Am not using a proxy.. its on my gateway machine at the home network..

the server url that it seems to be looking for:

serverURL=https://xmlrpc.rhn.redhat.com/XMLRPC

doesn't even seem to resolve.. which is strange..

anyone else any ideas?

I struggled quite a bit to get it working myself :

I guess it is to do with your proxy-setting : In my case however I got a
"405 : Method not allowed" error. Apparently I don't need a proxy for
this but it took me quite some time to find out that un-checking the
proxy option was not sufficient, I also had to erase what I had written
there.

hey guys.. hope someone can help with this..

I've just flattened and old machine and decided to re-download RH9..

done all that.. got it installed.. but up2date seems messed up..

I've looked on RHN and there seems to be some issue about certificated so I downloaded and installed the new up2date and up2date-gnome.. but doesn't seem to have much effect..

I get through the up2date-config (proxies etc) fine.. but then when I run rhn_register (or click the funky red applet) I get the welcome screen.. click next and then am greeted with:

"Fatal error retrieving privacy statement: name or service not known"

Any ideas what it means by that?

hope you can help

Cheers
