Quick ad for the up2date newbies: if you use a proxy server, set 
useNoSSLForPackages=1 in /etc/sysconfig/rhn/up2date.  *This makes 
packages cacheable*, and thus if you have more than one system, the 
bandwidth saved can be significant.  (Obviously those of you who pay 
little or nothing for bandwidth won't care, but some of us are still on 
AU$0.175/Mb when we go over quota.)

On that note, can anyone from Red Hat suggest why this option isn't on 
by default?  As long as packages are verified with GPG, there is no need 
to hide them from anyone, right?
