question on RHEL6 yum updates

I am working with a custom distribution and see the following behavior when doing a "yum update" to rhn.redhat.com

[root@dl360g306]# rpm -qa yum
yum-3.2.27-14.el6_0.1.noarch
[root@dl360g306]# rpm -q --whatprovides /etc/sysconfig/rhn/up2date
rhn-client-tools-1.0.0-38.el6.noarch
[root@dl360g306]# rhn_check

[root@dl360g306]# yum update
Loaded plugins: downloadonly, refresh-packagekit, rhnplugin, security
Error: Cannot retrieve repository metadata (repomd.xml) for repository: rhel-i386-server-6. Please verify its path and try again


If I edit /etc/sysconfig/rhn/up2date and change the protocol from https to https by modifying the serverURL
serverURL=http://xmlrpc.rhn.redhat.com/XMLRPC


[root@dl360g306]# yum update
Loaded plugins: downloadonly, refresh-packagekit, rhnplugin, security

Suggestions?
