The most common options configured are
enableProxy
and
httpProxy
to enable a
proxy server. To enable a proxy server, change the value for
enableProxy
to
Yes
and
the value of
httpProxy
to the name of the proxy server and port number in the format
HOST:PORT. For example, to use the proxy server squid.mysite.org on port 3128, you
would change the value to
squid.mysite.org:3128
.
If you require a proxy username and password, set
enableProxyAuth
to
Yes
to
enable username/password authentication for the proxy, and set
proxyUser
and
proxyPassword
to the appropriate username and password for the proxy.
To bypass SSL, change the protocol for
serverURL
from
https
to
http
in the
/etc/sysconfig/rhn/rhn_register
file.
5.2. Starting the Red Hat Network Registration Client
You must be root to register a system with RHN. If started by a standard users, the
Red Hat
Network Registration Client
prompts you to enter the root password before proceeding.
Important
If your username is part of a larger organizational account, be cautious when register-
ing your systems. By default, all systems registered with the
Red Hat Network Regis-
tration Client
end up in the Ungrouped section of systems visible only to Organization
Administrators. To ensure that you retain management of these systems, Red Hat recom-
mends that your organization create an activation key associated with a specific system
group and grant you permissions to that group. You may then register your systems us-
ing that activation key and find those System Profiles within RHN immediately. Refer to
Section 2.5
Registering with Activation Keys
for instructions.
