Entitled Server

A server that is subscribed to

Software Manager

. Because the server is entitled, the

Software

Manager

interface can be used to manage its packages.

Errata

Information published by Red Hat describing security fixes, bug fixes, and package enhance-

ments for Red Hat Linux. The information includes the topics of the Errata, Bugzilla bug IDs,

relevant releases/architectures, solutions including required RPMs, and MD5 checksums for ver-

ification. Errata are also available at http://www.redhat.com/errata/. Each RHN

Errata Alert

based on the Red Hat Linux Errata List.
Security issues and bug fixes are submitted by Red Hat engineers as well as the Linux community

through Bugzilla which generates a bug report for each issue. Red Hat engineering evaluates the

reports, resolves the bug, and generates new RPM packages. After the Red Hat quality assurance

team tests new packages they are placed on the Red Hat Public File Server and on the Red Hat

Network Server and an Errata is generated.

Errata Alert

RHN Errata Alert that updated packages based on Red Hat Errata are available for one or more

systems within an organization. There are three types of Errata Alerts: Security Alerts, Bug Fix

Alerts, and Enhancement Alerts.

Organization Administrator

Organization Administrator are sets of users that have the highest level of control over an orga-

nization’s Red Hat Network account. Members of this group can add users, systems, and system

groups to the organization as well as remove them. An Organization Administrator can also give

users administrative privileges to system groups. An RHN organization must have at least one

member of the Organization Administrator group.

Package

All software in Red Hat Linux is divided into software packages. Software updates are released

in the form of RPM packages that can be installed on a Red Hat Linux system.

Registered System

A system that is registered with Red Hat Network. Also known as a client system.
