I'm seeing this:

 yum update

Changing the ServerURL from https:// to http:// helps at least on our
RHN Proxy.


But I still get this during the update:

There was a fatal error communicating with the server. The message was:
Name or service not known

On the other systems changing the protocol doesn't help:


There was an error communicating with RHN.
RHN channel support will be disabled.
Error communicating with server. The message was:
Name or service not known
