I've been trying to use the RHN web interface, but so far only one or 
two updates are installed and the rest fail with "Failed: There was a 
communication error talking to the server" (code 21)

I'm at a loss for troubleshooting this error. Everything works fine when 
I run up2date from the machine manually, and rhn_check does not report 
any problems.
