Greetings,

We have been waiting for months to deploy RHEL5 in our lab environment and 
with fall semester approaching, the crunch is on :(

The issue is that rhn custom channels on RHEL5 was broken out of the box 
when a proxy server is involved.  At least that is my impression of this 
bug:

http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=240595

We filed a Service Request and HOTFIX request, but those didn't yield any 
relief nor updates on when this issue will be fixed.

Is our only option to deploy our own yum server and manage our custom 
packages that way?  Could anybody at redhat comment on when this will be 
fixed?

This is all very disappointing, since one of the reasons we purchased the 
proxy was to manage custom packages in a custom channel.

thanks,
   daryl
