[CLUG] rhn-register and Proxies configuration?

[Donncha O Caoimh]

What do the logs of your proxy server say? Does the update program even
get there? Did you try a google search?
http://www.google.com/search?q=redhat+update+agent+proxy+&hl=en&ie=ISO-8859-1&oe=ISO-8859-1

Found this.. look at the bottom of the page:
http://www.jp.redhat.com/manual/RHN/faq.html
(although you might want to find the English language version, I guess
this is probably what you already know but there might be other links on
that google page of interest to you)

Donncha.
