Hi there, This sounds like a server side issue. I think you are configured to point to a Satellite. Please contact the Satellite administrator for assistance to verify that the package is available for download on the Satellite. If you are using the RHN Hosted service (rhn.redhat.com) - then please try again. I am not aware of any issues with downloading this kernel package in the pass, but checking today it seems to be fine. https://rhn.redhat.com/network/software/packages/details.pxt?pid=370616 If you continue to encounter issues then please contact your Red Hat Support representative. If you are a student of a local university, then it is also the general case that no support is provided by Red Hat for the Enterprise Linux OS, and only for the RHN Proxy or Satellite being used and that your local university is providing some level of support for the Enterprise Linux WS OS. Regards, Cliff.
