Description Sean Dilda 2001-08-09 19:45:11 UTC

(this may not necissarily be a bug with rhn_register, but it seems the best
place to file the bug)

rhn_register allows me to register multiple machines under the same login
with the same name.  I managed to register my laptop as 'loiosh' three
different times.  This means that when I go to the entitlement page to make
sure I can still use up2date, I have to guess based on nothing but the
order as to which registration is which.

Each login should not be able to use the same machine name twice for sanity
reasons.

intentional, at least for the time being
