All,

Since I run Cornell's RHN proxy server, I can see how things break on both sides :-)

On the RHEL 5 Desktop machine, I got the same error described below.

On the proxy server (version 4.1.0), I see the following errors in rhn_proxy_broker.log:

---

So there seems to be a problem with RHN Proxy Server with RHEL 5. I could update and install packages if I connect the RHEL 5 Desktop directly to the RedHat Network.

Can you manually download that package and see if it's "sane"  The error
message about "header is not complete" makes me wonder.


Hmmm it looks like the RHN squid proxy is not getting things correctly
for some reason. The master of the RHN proxy is not here for the
week.. so it may wait til next week.


Option 2 would be getting the latest and greatest yum and manually
installing that and going from there.  I know there were a ton of issues
fixed in yum between B1 and B2.

Yes.. that seems to be the case.


On a complete tangent, hope you're doing well . . . you are still
missed :-)


Thanks. And Happy Thanksgiving to everyone there! We will leave a
plate for you at the table.
