If this just started happening since Aug 28th, then it is something that RedHat did. Have you downloaded the new up2date from redhat as directed to on your http://rhn.redhat.com home page? They made some changes to the up2date program and you should have been sent an email by them telling you to download the new up2date rpm manually and install it. If you are running Gnome, you will also need to download the up2date-gnome rpm too. Check the directions to find out the exact file names and where to get them.I didn't get, or see the email, and of course, I didn't check the website. Thanks for the info., it's up and working now.
The following is what http://rhn.redhat.com says:
----------------------------
SSL Connection Errors
On August 28th, the SSL certificates used by up2date, rhn_register, and the RHN applet expired. Systems attempting to connect to RHN using an older certificate will receive 'certificate verify failed' errors. Please see the following instructions to download the latest versions of up2date and rhn_register.
-----------------------------
hmmmm. After being on this list for a long time, I may have finally been able to help someone after all of the help that I have received from kind list users in the past.
Problem solved? Steve

From rhn.redhat.com:Has this been fixed yet?
We are currently experiencing ssl problems with up2date and the RHN
applet. We are aware of the issue and working to restore service as soon
as possible. The RHN website is currently available, but actions
scheduled for systems will not take effect until service is restored. We
apologize for any inconvenience, and thank you for your patience.

Not just you. I'm getting the same thing. Worked ok with the last update of iptables and pam_smb, but now it doesn't.
Did you find anything?

What the?[EMAIL PROTECTED] 08/28/03 20:28 PM >>>
There was an SSL error: [('SSL routines', 'SSL3_GET_SERVER_CERTIFICATE',
'certificate verify failed')]
A common cause of this error is the system time being incorrect. Verify that the time on this system is correct.
Yes, the system time (using 'date' command) shows the time as being correct (updated automatically midnight every day).
Side note: I've ignored it till now, but the kernel source won't download either over the last 3 times I've run up2date with a signature error. No other packages have this problem.
Just me? (That would be typical)
Regards, Ed.
I still have the problem, I just want to make sure it isn't a problem with my setup.
Any idea when it will be fixed?
