My understanding is you need a licence/subscription per production server (and even one for each server for testing purposes which seems a bit harsh) Once setup in rhn.redhat.com, you will only be able to patch one server using up2date if you only have one licence key. The rest will not get a subscription channel so will not be patchable, and indeed will not show any patches as being needed. You can install thousands of redhat servers off the one cd, indeed I have 30 something servers built via kickstart off the same CD, but they all have a individual registered licence each. I also understand that if you have an AS3 key, it is OK to install AS4, (or even as2.1) you cannot install ES3 or ES4 though (ie downgrade on the fly) as you will not have a licence. The sales people at redhat should be able to tell you all this.

Except it we downloaded RHEL v 4.0 from RHN through redhat's subscrition model and using it in our produion servers(more than one).Is the subscription licence and EULA are diffrent for purchased copy and dowloaded copy? According to EULA , we are restricted to redistribute or resell RHEL with Redhat trademarks.But unable to find license policies for multiple installation from single copy of RHEL.
