Marie,
As currently written, the doc text is not conveying the information that the user needs to know.  Let's try again....


Subscription manager does not respect `proxy_port` settings from rhsm.conf 

Subscription manager does not respect changes to the default `proxy_port` configuration from /etc/rhsm/rhsm.conf.  Even after the user changed the value of `proxy_port`, the default value of 3128 was continually being used.

This bug has now been fixed.  However, making any change to the proxy_port value in /etc/rhsm/rhsm.conf will likely require an selinux policy change.  The user should run this additional step for the benefit of the `rhsmcertd` daemon process to avoid selinux denials whenever changing the default `proxy_port` configuration away from 3128.

semanage port -a -t squid_port_t -p tcp <new_proxy_port>

Hi John,

Thanks a lot for the review and text provided.

I modified it a little bit to meet our documentation conventions. 
I just put the beginning into the past tense - if I understand it well, it was previous behavior (the bug) that was fixed so it's not happening now and should be in the past tense.
Is that correct?

Thank you!
Marie
