Are you behind a proxy server? If so you need to configure the proxy settings for rhn_register and up2date. Using the "--configure" option will allow you to set these settings up. It is also possible that you are behind a transparent proxy. Some ISP's set this up so that all http traffic gets redirected through a web proxy. However, the client should be able to handle this properly. What version of the up2date client are you seeing this error message with? rpm -q up2date will show you the version of the client. version 2.5.4 and up should be able to handle transparent proxies correctly. closing, no response. As far as I know, all proxy related issues with supported releases are cleared up. |
