Description Brooks 2012-10-03 18:56:28 UTC
Description of problem:
Customer reports that when trying to go to https://download.rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHEA-2006-0514.html, they are presented with the message, 'This Connection is Untrusted'. This message can be perceived as a security risk to access our public facing site.

Customer suggests we change this certificate from being a self-signed certificate, to a public facing security certificate to eliminate this request to accept a new security certificate.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
N/A

How reproducible:
Everytime (if you havent accepted the security certificate previously)

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Go to https://download.rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHEA-2006-0514.html

  
Actual results:
A request to accept the security certificate will appear

Expected results:
User taken directly to the web page

Additional info:

This request came in via Remedy ticket INC000000326859

As you may already be aware, Red Hat is transitioning from the Red Hat Network (RHN) hosted interface to the Red Hat Subscription Management (RHSM) interface in July 2017. Red Hat has invested in and seen success from RHN for many years, and used that experience to build more robust technologies like RHSM. 
 
If you have not yet migrated your RHN systems to RHSM or you are a Red Hat Satellite customer, please review the information from. https://access.redhat.com/products/red-hat-subscription-management#migration. 
 
Since we are shutting down RHN, no further actions will be taken with this bug or enhancement request.  You can find additional information at RHSM product page (https://access.redhat.com/products/red-hat-subscription-management).  If you have further questions, please contact support (https://access.redhat.com/products/red-hat-subscription-management#support).
