Description of problem: This may or may not be related to https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=232097. The specific problem here is that my client system has applicable security errata, so the rhn-applet is blinking red. After I applied all the security errata using the UI and ran rhn_check, the rhn-applet is still blinking red. Since the rhnsd interval is 2 minutes, shouldn't the applet change to yellow by now? Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): rhn-applet-2.1.25-22 rhnlib-2.1.1-3.el4 How reproducible: always Steps to Reproduce: 1. PXE a client to RHEL4 U2 or U3. 2. Register the client to webqa. 3. Install the latest rhnlib and rhn-applet and up2date and related stuff. 4. ssh -Y to the client and run rhn-applet-gui &. 5. Applet throbber should blink red. 6. Using the UI, apply all the security-related errata to the client. This has to be done manually unfortunately as the UI does not currently offer a way to "select and apply all security errata". The security errata have the gold padlock next to them. 7. Set the rhnsd interval (/etc/sysconfig/rhn/rhnsd) to 2 min. 8. Restart rhnsd. Actual results: Applet does not change to yellow. Expected results: Applet should change to yellow. Additional info:
