Ed: Thanks for the information. One of the machines, I know I've gotten this all corrupted, and now the box seems like a new server to RHN. I haven't been able to do updates in months and haven't had the time to research how to fix it. I MIGHT be able to find a really old tape, now that I know where that file is kept, but if not, is there a way to re-create it?

I'm not sure what mechanism RH uses to identify machines. I usually copy over /etc/sysconfig/rhn/systemid. Just copy the file over and then do an up2date --hardware to update RHN with your new host info. -- Ed Wilts, RHCE Mounds View, MN, USA mailto:ewilts@xxxxxxxxxx Member #1, Red Hat Community Ambassador Program -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
