I had several machines that I noticed seemed out-of-sync yesterday.
Updates would show in up2date but not in RHN.  I scheduled an "Update
Package List" for the given systems and, once that was complete,
everything seemed back in sync again.

Was this just coincidence and the systems would have eventually synced
anyway?
