I was able to download apache from the 6.2 channel just fine; which RPMs
specificly were misbehaving?

From https://rhn.webdev.redhat.com/network/package/package_details.pxt?pid=1394:

[cturner@rogue cturner]$ rpm -K apache-1.3.14-2.6.2.i386.rpm 
apache-1.3.14-2.6.2.i386.rpm: md5 gpg OK

sendmail-8.11.6-1.7.1 from RHSA-2001:106-06 (both binary and source package)
But it worked for the openldap packages, so guess that we just have something
odd happening with the sendmail packages.

kernel-2.2.19-7.0.8 also failed (binary and source package)

Now, when I try to download a file from beta.rhns, I'm getting a 404 error. 
This appears to be happening for all files, so I don't think that it is just the
package missing.

Comment 3 Chip Turner 2001-11-29 04:28:21 UTC
downloading doesn't really work well in old environments because we don't have a
test box in webdev or webqa for downloading -- all downloads happen off of my
workstation.  since those boxes (webdev especially) tend to not have accurate
data, sometimes we list a package that doesn't exist.

I think downloading is working; can you find any samples on rhn.redhat.com that
aren't?  Not much we can do right now for it, except just test on live.
