up2date: automatic vs. manual

[hutuworm]

William Hooper,

    Yes, I've tried to run rhn_register, then run up2date, it jumped out:

    -------------------------------------------------
Error communicating with server. The message was:

Error Message:
    Your account does not have access to any channels matching (release='1', arch='i686-redhat-linux')
If you have a registration number, please register with it first at http://www.redhat.com/apps/activate/ and then try again.
Error Class Code: 19
Error Class Info: Architecture and OS version combination is not supported.
Explanation: 
     An error has occurred while processing your request. If this problem
     persists please enter a bug report at bugzilla.redhat.com.
     If you choose to submit the bug report, please be sure to include
     details of what you were trying to do when this error occurred and
     details on how to reproduce this problem.
   ---------------------------------------------------

  I've found that the stupid rhn_register add a line "up2date default" in
/etc/sysconfig/rhn/sources . Comment it, there are only two lines in the 
file:

   ---------------------------------------------------
yum fedora-core-1 http://fedora.redhat.com/releases/fedora-core-1
yum updates-released http://fedora.redhat.com/updates/released/fedora-core-1
   ---------------------------------------------------

   It makes up2date happy. :D
