The only way I know of for this is via up2date during the inital registration.

You *must* use an activation key, and that key can be associated with zero or
more channels.  Any system subscribed using this key will automatically be
subscribed to the channels associated with the key.

If a system is already registered, I think you have to re-register it; there
is not a way to "add" channels later that I am aware of.  That said, I'd love
for more flexible way, even if it's via a seperate command (something like
"rhn_subscribe_channel" or whatever).
