Caution
When kickstarting systems receiving updates through either an RHN Proxy Server or RHN Satellite
Server:, you must import that server’s SSL certificate at the Kickstart/GPG and SSL Keys page and
associate it with all relevant kickstart profiles. This association should be made on the GPG and SSL
keys subtab of the Kickstart Details page. Not doing this will result in SSL_CERTIFICATE errors,
and the kickstart will never report as complete in the RHN website.
