Description of problem:
I have been trying to use rhn but since I need to use a username and password in order to connect through our proxy, I have not been able to.

I have looked around for this feature. I would have thought this is a basic feature to have. Have I been overlooking something?

Please run
rhn_register --config

and enable both the HTTP Proxy and Enable Proxy Authentication checkboxes, and 
fill in the username and password for your authenticated proxy.
