Re: up2date fails with SSL error

I'll give you the information I got from others on the list to fix this 
problem:

First, get the keys from: https://rhn.redhat.com/help/ssl_cert.pxt

RHNS-CA-CERT.asc
RHNS-CA-CERT

This makes rpm (and in turn up2date) happy with the signed
packages.

rpm --import /usr/share/doc/rpm-4.2.1/RPM-GPG-KEY
rpm --import /usr/share/doc/rpm-4.2.1/BETA-GPG-KEY

This fixes the SSL connection errors problem with up2date and RHN.

gpg --verify RHNS-CA-CERT.asc RHNS-CA-CERT
install -b RHNS-CA-CERT /usr/share/rhn
