Re: RH5 Boxes not updateing..

This is failing again, this time on the firefox security update from June 25th.. According to RPM I am at the latest version, but RHN tells me I need to update, so I queue it up for an update and then run rhn_check and rhn_check tells me the latest is already installed, and then I get the red ! on RHN's web page again with the same package needing updated..

Before this was only happening on RHEL5, now I am seeing it on RHEL4 and 5.. the 'yum clean all' isn't working this time...  Any ideas?

Also should I not be using rhn_check?  I see others use yum instead.. is there a big difference?

Thanks.

-Steve

Do you run 'yum clean all' first?  After running that, try your yum 
updates.
