Chapter 5. Red Hat Network Basic
RHN Basic also refers to the Web interface to Red Hat Network. You can use RHN Basic to
manage multiple Red Hat Linux systems simultaneously including viewing Errata Alerts,
applying Errata Updates, and installing packages.
Before you can use Red Hat Network, you must register each system that you want to ben-
efit from its services. The only information required is a unique username and password
combination and a valid email address. Refer to Chapter 2 for more information.
Your system must be subscribed to Red Hat Network Basic to fully utilize the Basic interface.
If a system is not subscribed (entitled), it will appear in the list of systems but will not be
available for RPM Updates through Basic.

In a Web browser, go to http://rhn.redhat.com. The page shown in Figure 5-1 will be dis-

After creating a new user account, you must register your system before using Basic. Refer
to Chapter 2 for step-by-step instructions.
After registering your system with Red Hat Network through the

istration Client , use the same user name and password combination to log into Basic. Type
