[rhn-users] up2date problems with EL 3.0

[George Goffe <ggoffe us ibm com>]

Howdy,

I'm having troubles with up2date and
I don't know what else.

I started getting ssl errors and followed
that path for a while by updating the certificate and then upgrading up2date.
Now I'm seeing other errors and am prety well lost at this point. Here's
what I'm seeing (below). Does anyone have any ideas as to how to proceed?

Regards and thanks,

George...
