Comment 2 John Matthews 2009-01-21 22:30:36 UTC 
It looks like this is related to a problem with SSL communication.

rhnplugin caught an OpenSSL.SSL.Error, then it hit a bug while trying to reformat the exception. 

we have a bug in our code, here rhnplugin.py: line 61-62
if len(pieces) >= 2:
    message = pieces[2].strip(" '")

Should be:
if len(pieces) > 2:
    message = pieces[2].strip(" '")
