Re: [rhn-users] Channel Subscription Lost after Re-entitling

'up2date --register' will re-register the system, set the channel, etc.

You will have to entitle it at rhn.redhat.com by either buying a new
subscription or moving a subscription from another machine.

You can also edit the Channel, probably, at rhn.redhat.com.

I was unable to edit a couple of systems Channels last week and had to go
the ' --register' route, but was able to edit the Channel on three systems
this week.
