[rhn-users] Provide a security certificate.

[Pennington, John]

Sure thing, here it is: I'll see if I can find something with strace.

Curious why this has a changed time. And still curious if your
/etc/sysconfig/rhn/up2date is properly configured. Can you show us the
contents of this file?

You shouldn't have to tell it anything about a certificate here. Try
to figure out why it is asking and correct the underlying problem.
Perhaps it is time to just strace this and see what it is trying to
find before it asks you for the certificate?
