RE: yum error when try to get update from RHN

Michael,

I saw some rpm packages had been downloaded. Does this mean my SSL connection via proxy is ok?

Hi,

it looks like you have problems to establish SSL connections. Are you 
using any proxy (if so, which type of proxy) or are there any other 
limitations (firewall, etc.). You can temporarily try and replace https 
by http in  /etc/sysconfig/rhn/up2date and see if that works for you. 
This will disable SSL connections to RHN and use unencrypted http 
connections. If this allows you to get updates again, we need to debug 
the SSL stuff further.

Michael.
