Dear Red Hat Network User,
We hope that you are enjoying your complimentary demo account with Red Hat Network. This email is being sent to you to because you have only 7 days left in your Red Hat Network demo account. Attached below is a link for filling out a survey in order to extend your demo account for 60 days, as well as a link to
purchase a Red Hat Network subscription and receive a year of uninterrupted service.
Please note that your completion of the survey is how Red Hat verifies the
activity of your account. It is Red Hat's policy to disable inactive demo accounts to ensure the best possible level of service to active demo users.
Thanks for your support of Red Hat and the Linux community. --the Red Hat Network Team

Hmm, I'm using the "one computer" demo/free arrangements (for just one
computer!), and don't seem to have got any sort of notification that
this was about to end.
I'm using 1 comp with RHN as well. ( also freshrpms with apt-get & synaptic ) and
haven't recieved these emails either. I wonder if it's a "use it or loose it" situation.
I have noticed my "basic account" has changed to a "demo account".
I have just been to rhn.redhat.com and set up a new account on an email alias,
I was given the account options of personal, corporate & educational and
managed to set up apersonal account ok. Will try my new account on a second
system.
