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
